Hi all.
I ran into a problem with my 1HDFT/A442F 80 series.
When coming home from a week out in the woods with cruiser I noticed the lockup clutch from the torque converter doesn’t seem to keep locked up that long as it did before in 4th gear. It feels like it releases sooner then it did before in relation to the throttle position, or feels like it starts slipping ik ne can’t handle the torque anymore when locked up.
I have lock up switch installed so I can manually activate the lockup clutch from in the cab, I never use it tough… but in 2nd and 3th I can go full throttle with the converter locked no problem, only in 4th it doesn’t seem to hold, even with only little throttle applied.
The oil does have a bit a burnt smell to it.
Throttle cable to gearbox is still good.
What should I do? Start with replacing the oil and maybe the lockup solenoid? Or does this sound like 100% fried lockup clutch?
Cheers
