    Coolant running down outside of torque convertor inspection cover

    Well, did some more troubleshooting. I can't find anywhere specific where the antifreeze is coming from. Think I'll run some dye. Question about clutch fans. How long should it spin once the truck is shut off? Mine spins for a good 15 seconds. I'm assuming that means it's shot? If I'm...

    Coolant running down outside of torque convertor inspection cover

    Ok well I went out and spun the fan. Or tried to. Could barely move it so I guess the clutch is OK.

    Coolant running down outside of torque convertor inspection cover

    But that wouldn't cause it to overheat right? I checked the coolant level after she cooled off and it's still full

    So what did you do with your truck today?

    Thanks man. I’ve put a lot of work into it, mostly just cleaning. I rescued it from a farm. They were good on maintenance but short on cleaning. I’m probably going to sell it so if you’re close to VA let me know.

    E40D Transmission gurus, slipping into neutral flashing od, no codes

    It’s picking up codes cuz it replies with an 11. I guess the trs could be failing but when I ohm’d it it measured within specs. Man I like this truck but the way the trans is set up drives me nuts.
