Tranny problems
Hey Guys,
Anyone have any info about this. I had a dead battery yesterday and jumped the car then about five to ten minutes into driving car tranny was taking forever to shift into second and third gear and i had to drive real slow but eventually made it to overdrive gear and cruised for a while like that. When I came to stop and took off same thing happening with shifting. Then I parked car and shut it off for about an hour. Then got back into car and had no tranny problems at all. Is that something with the computer ??

Check basic stuff---TV cable adjustment and trans fluid level.

Re: Tranny problems
Fluid level is good I know there is a electronic type plug on the tranny. I thought that was for the computer ? Lockup stall speed? I thought the TV cable is for TBI's. I don;t have a TBI. Is that correct ?

Re: Tranny problems
tv cable is for all engines that used a 700r4. The electrical plug is for torque converter lock up.
