This just happened, so I haven’t been able to repeat it, but basically:
09 4.7L Dodge Dakota, Automatic
I stopped at a gas station, left my truck running, hopped back in, went to drive, and the RPMs just shot up with extremely slow acceleration. It finally, I guess, kicked into gear and was fine, until the next stop light, and the same thing happened. It sounded like it was trying hard to suck on air, really loud, once again, found the gear and drove fine.
Any immediate things I can check tomorrow before work? Thanks.
That’s what it does. Possibly the filter, but no great way to check that other than to simply assume it has never been changed unless you did it previously.
Wouldnt even do that
If possible, get it towed to a shop or somewhere you can do it if youre equipped to. Will need a full service, hopefully it just a band tighten with a full service but it can be catastrophic if you continue to drive
No check engine lights popping, and my job is less than a mile away with no stop lights, (lucky me I know) and my co workers are all much more mechanically inclined than I am, so itll be good for them to take a look
