Good morning gents

I recently purchased an 85 f150 with an L6 bolted to what i believe is an AOD

When the truck has sat for awhile it shifts fine but i drove it to work today to see what else would break and after getting off the highway and sittin in gate traffic with foot in the clutch and in 1st the whole time moving inch by inch. I got onto base and she didnt want to shift at all i have had this problem at lights coming out of gear to not have to hold the clutch the whole time but the. She dosnt want to shift i to gear at all. Any ideas???

 

AOD means Automatic OverDrive.

AODs don't have clutch pedals. Only manual transmissions do. Do you have a manual or an automatic transmission?

 

That would make sense its manual
4 gears and reverse

 

Then I'm not going to be much help. I know a lot more about automatics than I do about manuals.

 

Well maybe you can help me with my other truck its a mid 60s c4 auto now when i install it all back in my truck do you need the kickdown cable

 

RTS TS-OD Top Shift 4 Speed Overdrive.

1984/89 F150/250 2WD/4WD & Bronco 300/302

 

That looks about right

 

<p>Based only the symptoms described here, my guess would be you need a new clutch. But it could also be the clutch master cylinder or slave cylinder....</p>

 

Dam i was hoping it would just be a fluid problem it starts fine and getting to the highway its fine its when i get off it acts up after its warm

 

Have you checked the fluid level in the clutch master cylinder?

With the hood opened, have someone depress the clutch while you observe the clutch master cylinder, located on the firewall. See if the firewall flexes. Sometimes, cracks develop in this area.

 

what is fresh hydraulic oil looking like as far as color maybe its just old fluid?

 

Clear, maybe a little brown if it is well used.
