Talking Hi New WI member HELP, E4OD problem

Hey All,

Please help me with my 1991 E350, 460 motor, E4OD tranny.

The tranny Shudders, just like i see some people say,
under light Acceleration at 40 to 70MPH.

it has been doing this for 2 years now,
as i have pushed the OD=OFF,
and when she shudders, i just Floor it and it stops, (most of the time).

question...

1. can is just Disable the TC lockup, by removing the Purple/Yellow wire that tells the TC to lock up?
2. if not, can i just replace the TC with a new one?
3. do i have to rebuild the whole tranny?

4. i live in Milwaukee, where can i trust a place to rebuild her Correctly?

5. what do you think about this place? kinda close to milwaukee...

in schaumburg , IL

Thank You very much.

I LOVE MY FORD TRUCK!!!!! ok its a van!



thanks

super bike mike

my van has 125,000 miles,
and this is the FIRST problem she has ever had.
she has towed trailers for 70,000 of those miles too!
BIG Trailers!

i did replace 1 starter, and replaced the spark plugs, wires, cap/rotor
at 100K miles.

Well
I Think I Fixed It...

I Cut The Purple/yellow Wire,
Circuit # 480
Just Above The Connector On The Right Side Of The Tranny

Thats The Wire That Tells The Tc To Lock Up.

Ni Lock Up Signal, No Shudder.

What Do You Think?

Thanks
Mike

Hey, SSmike1. How much did the rebuild cost and how far is kenosha away from west allis? I am needing my 93 bronco with e40d rebuilt.
