On the way to the other end of town today to punchlist a couple jobs and the automatic in my 2004 3/4 ton gmc with the 6.0 gas starts slipping. I"ve owned mainly manuals most of my life, and this felt like a clutch would if it was shot. Going from a stop, it hesitates then grabs. steady driving, go to accelerate, it winds up a bit before doing anything. I bought it with 45k on it and really haven"t towed with it but maybe twice and that was real light stuff. Fluid and filter was changed about 6k miles ago. Truck has 90k on it. Tried checking the fluid when I got home - reads "sloppy" on the dipstick - hard to read because it keeps wiping itself up the stick when I pull it, but I would say it looks to be full. No leaks evident. Slight whine sometimes at low speed. Fluid doesn"t smell burnt. Still looks reddish. Any ideas? I"m really in the dark here as this is only my second automatic ever. First automatic one is in the cherokee and has 275k on it with no problems. Thanks Tony

After a few paragraphs I usually close the book and go back to banging out dents. A good friend and I were recently discussing our tractor electrical systems when he stated "I figure it all comes back to applying Ohms Law". At this point
