Trans problem?
I just bought a 96f150 w/300I6 and auto trans 90k miles.When I put the truck in reverse it hesitates for a second(but feels like trans is turning)and then when reverse engages the front drivers side of the vehicle seems to drop down with a slight clunk.Is this normal for this truck or is this a motor/trans mount problem?All other trans funtions seem normal.

Actually I checked it out some more today and the trans is going into gear alright but it seems to have some play in it.What I mean is when the truck is put in park it still can be rolled almost another foot.What doe s this sound like guys?

It rolls when you put it in park because the parking pawl does not fall directly into one of the notches on the parking gear, which allows it to roll until it falls into a notch. Its just a random thing, and should sometimes roll less than other times.

So this is nothing to worry about?What about the slight clunk and body shift I hear when dropping into reverse,trans/motor mount? BTW what tranny fluid does an e4od use?
