Went out to my truck just for kicks, she's being eaten alive a** first. Hope Dave makes it to Marquette okay because its getting really nasty now.
Don't know where the idiot in this Saturn is thinking he is going. This is what's awaiting him.

I guess it's not a bad TPS then. It's been known to happen.
That would suck if it was, -specially after swapping the trans out.
If it were the TPS, -it's logs right away on the KAM. Any dealership would catch it. How many miles on that trans ? It's a 75r right ? Haven't heard of any problems with them, yet.
Sucks, hope you find a good one. Don't forget to try, -

Just type in your zip code.

Now it sounds like there's about 4 dozen loose bolts rattling around in the tranny when you put it in gear.
I'm going to go with a remanned unit from Ford and hopefully have it installed next week.

When I bought the truck the CarFax said SOMETHING was done with the tranny at 84k miles and then again at 89k but it didn't state what. I always assumed it was repaired but I don't know what was wrong with it.

It's a 4r75E with 145,000 miles on it. Last week the torque converter started making noise, like it was chattering, when it would lock. The noise wasn't consistent, the truck didn't run any different and for as much of a racket as it would make it didn't make any vibrations at all.

Great choice! I'm not sure there's a better one. - Since those are just like or better than new.
