"Flash" for dieing auto?

I heard there is a &quot;flash&quot; for auto trucks that die, but now I can't find it.<br><br>Everytime I put the truck into gear, or reverse, the truck dies, anybody heard of a &quot;flash&quot; for this?<br><br>Nathan

When I went to the step V's injectors it started to do this, But it does get better as time goes on. I think the &quot;flash would be the last thing I would do&quot; OverFueled

Re:"Flash" for dieing auto?

sounds like your torque convertor clutch may be staying locked up. try pulling the relay for the transmission circuit. You will loose lockup and overdrive but it will let you drive your truck to the shop.<br><br>
