Howdy Everyone,
Well I've got some problems on my flatbed!! I went mudding and got stuck in some deep water (see pics) the engine died and wouldn't start back up. My dad pulled me out and to our local pharmacy where it sat for a day. The transmission fluid and oil were both contaminated heavily with dirty mud water.
I drained the oil water until it was in the proper range, I pumped out the transmission fluid water as much as I possibly could and it was about 1 inch above the recommended area on the dipstick in neutral.
We jumped the flatbed and it started and smoked like crazy (water in the muffler / cat etc.) after 30 minutes it was running great. Drove immediately to the nearest oil change place. Changed engine oil. Started driving home and on highway all of a sudden alot of steam came out from underneath and had no power to the wheels, engine still running great. Almost as if revving in neutral.
Got it into a parking lot and came back the next day.
Pumped out more transmission water fluid, and it drove again! Woo! drove it about 4 miles and it steamed and wouldn't drive up the hill I was on. Got pulled into a valero, then my wife came and pulled me home. It now wont drive at all even after being completely cool. I also have a code for P1757;
SYMPTOM
P-1757 GOV PRES ABOVE 3 PSI IN GEAR WITH 0 MPH
I purchased a new transmission filter, gasket, atf +4 and Governor Pressure Sensor Transducer & Solenoid 1996-1999. That is where I'm at now.
Does anyone have any ideas or pointers? (besides don't try to drive through 4 ft of water without a lift)
TLDR: Truck wont drive in any gears P1757 DTC. Contaminated Tranny fluid.
