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.
What type of transmission fluid should you use? Automatic transmissions use a special type of oil, called Automatic Transmission Fluid, or ATF. This fluid has a number of duties in the transmission, including lubrication, cooling and clutch application.
