Re: 700r4 No Shift At WOT

The 700r4 does not use vacuum.

Re: truck not engaging into gear

There is not enough information in your post to do anything other than guess.
If the fluid is full, and nothing is happening in any gear, 1 possibility it a broken pump.

If you are talking about an auto trans, no.
