Hi All

2000 Explorer, 4.0L OHV Auto Trans.

Putting the Trans on 1st Gear it does not seem to hold the truck back going down hill.
Maybe the Converter is not locking?

Fluid level is good. It is in first gear because going up hill it does stay in low gear.
It is only when going down hill that it the trans does not slow the truck as it should.

Thanks in advance for any help on this.
Bill
