Hey all,
This past winter I was having a little fun in my 89 and i ended up getting stuck was in the process of getting pulled out and my truck stalled out and wouldnt start back up (which has never happened before) Once it got towed to a parking lot i let it sit over night (it was getting cold) went to it in the morning tappped on the starter and it fired right up. However when I went to take her home she wouldn't move. Just would rev up when i put it in drive and would roll backwards like it was in neutral. I changed the fluid and put a new filter in and its still messed up. Any thoughts?

 

Welcome to FTE!

Please let us know which model truck, engine and transmission you have. You can do this for this thread or add it to your signature for future posts.

 

Its a 1989 Ford f250 custom with the 5.8 windsor and c7 transmission i believe. (its a 3 speed so i was told that those are the c7's )

 

4x4 or 2WD?

 

4 wheel drive my bad

 

First thing to check is the transfer case. Shift to Park, and see if the truck holds still, or can be pushed/rolled.

 

I am thinking the t-case is in neutral

 

Truck didn't roll untill I put it in drive or reverse. Its been sitting in the same spot for about a month but went and started it up yesterday and thats when it rolled

 

C6 are three speeds.

 

Good catch justcruzin125 Thats what I ment. I knew it is a c6 I must have hit 7 by accident
