93 E4OD issues
Hey all, I have a 93 F250 7.3 non turbo E4OD 4x4 that is making me regret buying a truck with a slushbox in it.
My problem is whenever you put it in gear it grabs like it wants to go. Both forward and reverse. The OD cancel light doesnt come on at all, not even with OD off. No blinks either. The tach doesnt register till its reved up either.
I replaced the MLPS a few days ago and corrected some shifting problems. I installed a transgo hd2 shift kit today along with a new filter. It didnt help or correct it.
Any ideas?

OD light not working turned out to be the light itself. Got that fixed, it doesnt blink or anything. Set FIPL at 1.08V and 3.99V, the only code that came up when I scanned it was for the FIPL being out of range. Relay, diode, and all fuses are good. I cleaned the tach sensor and fixed the exposed wires and the tach doesnt work any better, but I don't have the 50 dollars to get a new sensor at the moment. At this point I doubt it is the tach sensor anyway, I get the feeling I need a solenoid pack.

Worked for me for many year..... but eventually the sensor will leak a little oil out the top.

Tach sensor is fixed, 8 bucks at the local u-pull salvage yard. No change.
Talked to the guy at the good local tranny shop, he says the pump is probably worn out not making enough pressure to keep the tcc from applying. I just cant see that in 72K miles. I have a spare tranny I can swap stuff from.
Any other ideas?
