Cat Lift Trucks (& Caterpillar) V50D:
Transmission problem

Hi All,
When I move the lever to go forwards or reverse the engine bogs down and stalls. With a few revs it will get going but it is like a clutch bite that is too low down the rev range. It is better when the engine is cold...then slowly gets worse as it warms up. I read somewhere that the forward reverse solenoids can stick etc....but where are they ? TIA.
