    Installed new battery, now it won't start

    o.k. I'll change my first answer.... Why did you decide to change just one battery? 3dubs is partialy correct. If one battery is bad, the other has been doing the bulk of the work. What did the truck do prior to replacing battery, hard start no start? If you test the other battery, does it test...

    TH 400 forward gears give out

    o.k. guys here's my approach based on common sense. These vehicles are 25 years olds. FACT If they were owned by a national guard unit, which I believe most of them were, they were once a month, during drill and then they sat up for the rest of the month. FACT When they were turned over to a...
