Its been a while...

Postby vic » Thu Jan 07, 2016 7:54 pm

Hello Everyone.

I used to be on here as lucky91. I cant remember my last login, but my recent attempt
to reset my password could not validate my existence.

Last year I bought my father an 89 D250 off of Sacramento craigslist from a concrete contractor. :shock:

Luckily, only a fixed back window, radiator, water pump, voltage regulator, and battery later the 727's pump seal and bushing failed. Now that Ive pulled the whole thing apart Im gonna need some advice.

Thanks in advance!

My advice is bring it to a shop that knows how to fix it. Auto transmissions run on magic, normal people can't make them go.
