Tranmission problems
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???

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

<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>

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.
