Try using lucas transmission oil treatment it might be the lock up clutch in the torq converter sliping. if the transmission is a 4L80 and thier is alot of miles on it the torq converter clutch usally gets a glaze build up and the lucas treatment is wonderfull for that.if the treatment didnt work then overdrive is starting to go out you need to take it to a transmission shop hope this helps

Will the transmission from a 1998 chevy 1500 fit in my 2001 chevy 1500

The transmission in question is called, "4L60E" There are two versions. The 4L60E ran from 1992-1997. Then the 4L60E was updated and ran that version from (1996-2010). In 2002 GM introduced the 4L65E. So YES you should not have a problem fitting a 1998 chevy 1500 with a 4L60E into a 2001 Chevy 1500 with a 4L60E. You didn't mention that both were 2wd or 4wd. You can not convert a 2wd into a 4wd. I hope that helps, good luck.

My 2000 chevy silverado c-1500 the transmission will pull for aminute or two then it will guits pulling then you can cut it off for aminute or so then it will pull agin

My first guess would be a solenoid not staying engaged.
But it could be a pump or valve body issue.
Is the check engine light on ? If so you could have trouble codes to point you in the right direction to look.
You have checked to see if it is full of fluid, right ?

Transmission shifts hard into second gear(auto trans). However, when shutting engine off and restarting, the hard shift will go away. It will come back in a few days. Doesn't seem to matter how many...

it may be a bad tps ( throttle position sensor ). it causes transmission shift issues, bucking,jerking, idle surging, engine cut off, surge while crusing down highway. if this does not solve problem, it may be a sticking valve body in transmission. have a good day !! for an automatic tranny.

Not sure?

to 94 chevy have you checked fuel pump? car must be turned off . With key in off position turn key to acc position, radio must be turned off. when key is in acc position you should hear small hum for about 15 to20 sec then it shuts off .This means fuel pump is working. This should happen every time you turn the key switch. If you have pump noise, I would look under the distributor there are two sets of wires that is your spark modulator . remove distributor cap 2 screws on driver side removes it take it to autozona/ checker auto and they will check it

Transmission doesnt seem to engage, no drive indicator on column

I would take it back to the person that rebuilt it and make them fix it again or get your money back if you can
