Yes, all the clips were ok and UVC looked good. I ran it 2 days now and seems to be a little better. It hasn't died either recently. My main problem is it shifting into overdrive and jerking like crazy along with the "miss" and not having as much power.

The big problem I may have is when it shifts into overdrive while driving, it begins to shake and jerk irradically. Would this be my tranny going south?
Any ideas on all of these issues would be greatly appreciated??????

Wow. My guess is many of your codes predate your fixes, so you need a fresh view of what is going on since your fixes. Sounds like your tranny has gone south. Mechanical diode probably shot, tranny may well need to be replaced. To early to guess at the miss. You need a fresh code scan. Just a hunch, but the oil change was way overdue? Maybe as simple as dirty injectors? Double dose some DK for the fuel side. You'll find various vigorous opinons on adding detergents to the oil side. I'll leave that to you to research and decide.

Well it started out as a TC, but took the whole tranny out in the process. If you suspect that you have a TC problem, pull the inspection plate off the tranny. Have someone put it in gear and hold the brake. Roll under the truck and listen(or in your case just walk under it, lol thats a tall truck). I heard a loud tinging sound when I did this. You shouldn't hear anything just the motor. My guess is that when my TC went out it was from broken fins, that led to bearing failure, that led to tranny failure.
