    Transmission falling out of Drive on downshift, blinking, displaying "shift to P" and back

    It is safer to remove the negative terminal. The reason is that if you accidently touch the positive battery terminal with a metal tool while you are working, the tool is grounded to the negative terminal through the chassis and a big spark and boom is going to result. If the ground is...

    Oil catch can

    The amount of oil that you remove from the catch can is the exact amount of oil that is not burned and emitted as particulates or smoke.

    A/C condensate drain???

    Do a search. The line is through the fire wall into the engine compartment. Water can wick up the drain line and get into the cab if the line seal is bad.

    Engine stalled / shut off

    We've got several different threads covering two distinct issues. It would probably be best to just have two threads, one for the first issue of the truck shutting down at higher speeds and the dash console lighting up like a Christmas tree. That can be caused by the above referenced (in the...
