My 2001 f250 7.3 with 181k on it starting acting up last weekend, I've owned this truck for like 7-8 years and been a damn good truck, this truck only gets driven about once or twice a month so it sits a lot, now my problem began last Sunday when I drove about 6-7 miles and stopped and my moms, let truck run for about 5-10 mins while I was there and when I pulled out the driveway when truck went to shift into second gear it's like it wasn't there until I let off the accelerator and then it shifted, done this several times, I have a ts performance 6 position chip, I have always ran it on 100hp for years, I turned off programmer and boom it shifted fine
So my question is, could my programmer be flaking out or do I have a valve in my transmission not holding the pressure my programmer is pushing it too, I added 2 bottles of Lucas and thought maybe something sticking but it didn't help cause yesterday I turned programmer back on and it did it again, fluid level is right and fluid is bright red
I changed filter and fluid probably 5 years ago and doesn't have probably 20k on it. So do I need a rebuild or new programmer?
