It could be that the torque convertor is locked and not slipping which it should do as the normal operation
there isn't a difference cause theres no such thing as a automatic or manual engine. there is such thing as a manual transmission aka trans. and a automatic trans. the automatic shifts by hydrolic pressure that increases when acclurating. and a manual trans the person driving the vehical shifts the gears with a lever. i hope that's what you wanted to know.
With the 4.3L V-6 engine and automatic trans, 12.6 qts.With the 4.8L V-8 engine and automatic trans, 13.4 qts. With the 5.3L V-8 engine, air conditioning, engine oil cooler and automatic trans, 15.2 qts.
if it's an automatic trans, the torque converter could be faulty.
set the parking brake on put the trans into drive and while applying the brake set the rpm to its higher point the release
Incorrect fluid level,Linkage out of adjustment, Internal trans failure,
If it's automatic, no.
You need to have the system checked for codes. The computer that controls the trans has most likely detected a problem and set a code. That can cause the trans to be locked into second gear.
It depends on what you mean be stall. If you can hear the engine rev up like the trans isn't even in gear...it could be a few things. 1) You're low on trans fluid. And the trans is literally falling out of gear around turns or when you go up hill. 2) If you stomp the gas and it revs up then takes off...and you have an automatic trans your drive belt is going out. If you can take off fine in 1st gear (automatic only) then it is your drive belt. If it just started doing this get something called Lucas Transmission Additive. It will recondition the belt enough to make it driveable. If it's been going on a while, chances are good your trans is shot.
a stall will not engage trans until a minimum rpm is reach depending on rpm range of the stall converter
for manual trans. it is behind the steering wheel, for automatic it is on the left side of engine compartment near the engine.
There are 6 bolts that hold the trans. to the engine block.
On the automatic trans, you will have to remove the pan to drain.On the automatic trans, you will have to remove the pan to drain.
