Hey everyone I have an issue with my transmission and I'm not to sure where to start, and wondering if anybody has had similar problems. First off a lil background on my truck its a 1990 F250 heavy duty with the 460, and it only has 95000 original miles on it. Last year I had some issues with it shifting weird at high speeds, when I would do 50-60mph and give it a lil gas its like its in neutral until around 4000rmp then goes into gear. And only when I've been driving for at least an hour. The first time it happened I let it cool down thinking maybe the transmission got hot since I was carrying a load of wood outta the mountains. I changed fluid and filter, but when I dropped the pan I noticed the filter was not in its place and laying in the pan. After putting back together everything was fine even pulling about 20 cords of wood. Last Thanksgiving we went for a Christmas tree and it happened only once as to every time I pushed the gas like it did before. Two weeks ago it started all over again while fishing with my brother everytime i would give it gas on the highway it would do the same thing like it was in neutral until about 4000 rpm. And this time as I got into the city it was doing it at all speeds. So I checked the fluid said it was high, but didn't smell burnt. I waited a day and took it around the block and everything was back to normal, I even drove it around town for a bit. Today I'm going to drop the pan again and see where the filter is at since I got a clip to hold it in place. Please let me know if anybody has any ideas that could help me out, all feedback is greatly appreciated.
