Mike Earls, you didn't say what type of driving, but is your converter still locking up as before? I've noticed on mine the only time I see significant temp. increase is when converter is unlocked, like going uphill where vehicle speed is lower & converter is unlocked.

All of my driving is on flat terrain, as we have no hills. I'm not sure I would know how to determine when the converter was locked. As I mentioned, the trans temp would increase with the truck stopped and trans in park.

The fluid is full and still pink.

Thanks for your reply.

Mike

Yes, doesn't make sense,wouldn't think the temp. should increase in park. I would check for atf flow thru the cooler lines.
