Main Responsibilities. Marine engineers are responsible for the design, maintenance and repair of the various mechanical systems in a ship. A marine engineer often works closely with the architect who designed the initial blueprint for a shipâs structure.
The transmission wildcard here is the Ram truck. Ram doesnât offer a medium-duty-truck transmission in its pickup. So weâve chosen to compare the automatics from Ford and GM to the Aisin Seiki AS68RC six-speed found in Ramâs cab-and-chassis trucksâand not the 68RFE six-speed used in Ram pickups. Will this Aisin Seiki be the next transmission offered in the Ram pickup once its power goes up? We wouldnât be surprised.
Brand: Clearing up confusion over transmission fluid. Q: I recently purchased a 2008 Chevy Equinox with 81,000 miles. It has the non-GM Aisin AF33 five-speed transmission. The owner's manual states to use only T-IV automatic transmission fluid. I pointed this out to the shop when I had the transmission fluid changed.
