4L-60E trans interchange

not knowing what type or make of panel van your talking about, i would have to say that you can put any motor in it if your good enough at fabrication. I see people do it all the time in junkyards using welders, scrap metal, and mixing and matching car parts.

P0740 - Torque Converter Clutch Malfunction
Possible causes- Low transmission fluid level
- Dirty transmission fluid
- Faulty torque converter clutch solenoid valve
- Torque converter clutch solenoid valve harness or connectors
- Torque converter clutch solenoid valve circuit is open or shorted

If it indicates on the dash as being in D, but you never feel it shift out of 3, the problem could be as simple as checking your transmission fluid level and top off as needed or a bent linkage that prevents the transmission from engaging D. Try setting the shifter between N and D and see if it shifts up out of 3 to D. If that works, the linkage between the shifter in the cabin has been loosened or bent. This should be a relatively easy fix for your mechanic.

If when checking the transmission fluid level, it is found to be brown or smells burnt; it may indicate a larger, more expensive repair. Transmission fluid should be pinkish / red in color and smell like hydraulic fluid or oil.

1997 model just work with the 1997 fuel pump; the same situation with the 1998 model and 1996 model.

For other years, they can interchangeable, as Transport 1990-1995.

Hope helps (remember rated this).

• No 3rd or 4th gear: “3-4” clutches are worn out. R&R. The car is safe to drive (in 2) until you can get it fixed.
• Trans shifts into gear harshly, car feels sluggish off the line, No 1st, 4th or TCC lockup available, Manual 2nd, 3rd and Reverse are only available gears, CEL is on: Transmission is either in limp-home mode or has lost electrical power. If there are lots of error codes in the PCM, check the under hood fuse that powers the transmission, and if it pops again, look for a short in that circuit like an O2 sensor harness touching exhaust. Otherwise, check PCM codes for a particular fault in the transmission causing the PCM to put it in limp-home mode.
• No 1st or 4th available; trans shifts 2nd to 3rd by itself in D or OD and locks the converter : Shift A solenoid failed. Easy fix in the pan. Or a wiring problem from PCM to trans.. or PCM.

Check to see if your transmission is in the limp mode, which would only give you 2nd, 3rd and reverse gears. No 1st or 4th gear.

Check fuel pressure to make sure your fuel pump is working .If ok let us know and we will help futher.

1. After refill check oil level.
2. Do not use synthetic lubricant in axles using RTV sealant.
Synthetic lubricant will chemically atack RTV sealant.
3. Identification: check tag on case.

The factory Lug pattern on the Olds Custom cruiser full size (i.e. Caprice/ Impala) is 5 lug with 5 inch spacing also known as 5 on 5. The S-10, Camaro, and Chevelles are all 5 on 4 3/4 so they will not work. Any 5 lug Full sized Van or full sized GM pickup truck or Astro have the same pattern as the Custom cruiser. Additionally, Most Gm 64-96 Full sized body on frame cars have the same pattern of 5 on 5 (5x5) as the Custom cruiser. Hope this helps.
