Hello all,
Before I start I have searched and probably read all that came up. I’m still a bit curious to why I have a high rpm range with my ‘99 4 speed auto.
It may be normal, or maybe not, but doing 70 with stock 265/70/16 I’m averaging 3100 rpms. Seems high for a v8. I feel every shift point up to 3rd but having a hard time sensing 4th. Maybe it’s buttery smooth I don’t know. At 70 I’ll hit the O/D button and I’ll get a slight increase in rpms. Maybe 500-800 rpms.
Are the shift points with this auto 1-2-3-4-o/d or 1-2-3-o/d? I feel like I’m getting a functional O/D so maybe 3100 rpm’s is the norm for 70.
I’m going to order the cable to start techstream and see if something is popping up. But I have no indication of anything wrong on the dash. The “D” in the shift column doesn’t light up but I’m guessing the bulb is shot.
