I have a w series vortec motor with 4 wheel drive.
When going from park to drive, or park to reverse, it takes about 3-4 seconds to get into gear. (no big deal, but could have something to do with the rest of the problem.)
Also, it only wants to shift gears at about 3000 rpm while doing normal driving. It's like I have to drive it fast for it to act properly.
Is that normal? Since I've only had it a few weeks, I'm not really sure what's normal and what isn't.
In fact, it acts like a typical automatic transmission does when the vacuum hoses aren't hooked up properly. I had someone look at it, and they told me that there are no vacuum hoses. How could that be true?
Anyone have any thoughts? Or know what I should look at / for?
