I brought my truck to ford because I thought I was having transmission issues, but they are telling me that my transmission is fine, that I need to replace my number 8 injector. None of these symptoms sound like injector issues:

-Shifting from park to reverse, takes a couple seconds to shift, then jumps.
-Coming to a very slow stop, truck is a little jumpy at around 2-3 mph

Any thoughts or has anyone ever seen or heard of these symptoms?

 

What year of truck are we working on?

 

It's a 2004 250

 

You have a transmission reverse clutch snap ring that is probably giving you problems since it will stumble and clunk. An injector will stumble going down the road like it is missing a cylinder or it could be a little of both. The dealer would have to perform an injector balance test, cold morning start after setting all night is best.
