well, it was another adventure. the engine sure seems to turn at a pretty high rpm, but, no tach so i'm not sure. anyway i made an appointment at a shop that spacializes in differential work that's about 100 miles from home. (nice road trip)
we get the truck on the lift, and it's got......... a 3:08 gear in it already. so i'm REALLY perplexed at this point. not all for nuthin' though since the gear oil was a murky brown color. it had a bunch of water in it. the guy charged me a hundred bucks for a fluid change! i ain't going back there, nor will i send anyone else and that's for sure! since the speedometer is so far off, i'm gonna buy a tach and a gps to keep track of the speed/ rpm. i dunno. at this point, maybe the torque converter?? maybe a 700 r-4? the mileage is horrible, but the 350 is pretty tired.
my head hurts. too much thinkin', i'm thinkin'. there's and answer to every problem. just gotta find it.
