Probably issues with Shift Solenoids. You need a transmission specialist or an auto electrician with a pro grade bi-directional scan tool computer that can tell the solenoids to operate and confirm that they did. Or it is the powertrain module that is at fault.

HOW HIGH IS TOO HIGH RPM? (NO TACHOMETER?) NO ENGINE TOLD OF MANY SO ANSWERS NOW GO GENERIC.

• IAC BAD. (IDLEAIR CONTROLEER VALVE) THERMAL
• ISC STUCK (IDLE SPEED CONTORLLER ELECTRIC.
• THERMOSTAT BAD, OR MISSING.
• ECT READS WRONG/ Most times see 1 line up.
• VACUUM LEAKS FROM VAST THINGS. (YES VAST)
• PCM IN LIMPHOME MODE NOT SCANNED AND IDLE CONTROLS 100% OFF LINE. AND SURGING.
• GROSS MISFIRING.
• GROSS LEAN BURN AND SURGE.
• other sensors failing hard and you not scanning PCM miss the boat.

I tried the DIY service and repair manuals from a website and it actually helped me repair transmission problem in my jcb 3cx site-master. it wont move forward or reverse, engine is good both solenoids for forward and reverse work. I don't have much technical knowledge but I just followed it step-wise, and works perfect! got it from www.reliable-store.com

the camshaft sensor is located into distribuitor.......The camshaft position sensor is a basic component of the engine control system. It monitors engine speed and piston position. These input signals to the ECMare used to control fuel injection, ignition timing and other functions. The camshaft position sensor has a rotor plate and a wave-forming circuit. The rotor plate has 360 slits for a 1° (POS) signal and 6 slits for a 120° (REF) signal. The wave-forming circuit consists of Light Emitting Diodes (LED) and photo diodes. The rotor plate is positioned between the LED and the photo diode. The LED transmits light to the photo diode. As the rotor plate turns, the slits cut the light to generate rough-shaped pulses. These pulses are converted into on-off signals by the wave-forming circuit and sent to the ECM. The distributor is not repairable and must be replaced as an assembly except distributor cap and rotor head. NOTE: The rotor screw which secures the distributor rotor head to the distributor shaft must be torqued properly.

did the "bump" tear out wiring under car?

Fuel pickup screen clogged/fuel filter clogged/fuel pump failing/fuel line erosion clogging itself AND filter.

some of those distributors were pretty loud as far as rattle noise. could be distributor it self, but would not worry about it much until it actually completely dies. could run like this for long time.

It is not an interference motor ford had them redesign it to have enough Clarence for valves ad piston

Hi, you mentioned a clutch fan? I belive they have an elec. Fan. Have that checked.
