if i floor it it will take off fast then suddenly it loses power thru the tranny and the rpm goes up, but if i let off the gas slightly the tranny catchs again.
i think it might be the kickdown cable or t.v. cable whatever its called. anyone have this problem or know what it is?

 

Welcome to thirdgen.org.

Can we assume you have a V8? Any modifications?

Is the fluid level up where it should be? Has the transmission been serviced (fluid, filter change)?

 

thank god i have a v8 !!! damn 4cylinder mustang is faster than a v6bird or maro... or at least mine is, infact landlord has a 98 v6 maro, man that thing is a dog, hes jealous of the bird now
no mods other than i took of the smog belt and aircleaner but it did that before i did that stuff.fluid is nice and clean , i was surprised, probably never been serviced. and thank for the welcoming...
im a car freek

There is only one proper way to adjust the TV cable - Push down on the release button where the cable attaches to the bracket on the intake manifold and pull the cable housing to the rear of the car; let go of the release button, floor the accelerator and let the housing click forward. That's it.

If the transmission hasn't been serviced, change the filter and fluid.

If after those two things you still have the problem, your tranny is probably on its way out.
