I have a 1986 Ford F250 4x4 with the 6.9L diesel and a C6 transmission. I lost 2nd gear. Here is what happened. In the morning I drove the truck to work. and everything was fine. The truck sat all day. When I went to go home, it would not shift out of first gear. Even when I would manually try to shift through the gears, I only have first. I applied vacuum to the modulator with my vacuum pump, and now it will shift from 1st to 3rd. It skips 2nd gear. Is there a simple adjustment that will fix this, or do I need a new transmission? I am a profession mechanic, but I don't deal too much with transmissions. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
