  • i have a 1988 chevy caprice classic bro, i have the original 700 trans in it, its like when my engine is cool my gear shifts good dont drag shift like it pose to but as it start to warm up it starts to drag in like 3rd or 4th gear i been trying to figure out is it the trans before i spend money on another one

  • @DEEBOYYUNG20 You could try to change the filter and add some new fluid in if you haven't already.

  • Hi Buddy, I have a 93 ford Truck E-350 1 Ton Econoline - Van and something happened with the transmission (automatic), full fluid level its OK but when into 1 and 2 .... the truck runs good but for 3rd and 4th the RPMs go up and up (foot on gas accelerating), but the truck doesn't speed up .... i'm stuck on 1st and 2nd...

    -Solenoid problem ?

    -Should I reset by disconnecting battery ?

    -No OD light flashes in dashboard.

    -No ''CHECK ENGINE'' light.

    Thanks for any help ...

  • @djlaiguana1 You may want to have a transmission shop take a look at it. It could be a worn over drive band, or a TV cable that needs to be adjusted.

  • Hi I have a 91 suburban having the same symptoms..... The late shifting... What happens? Does it break and get stuck in the cable sleeve?

  • @dustinstube1 Sometimes they can break or even stretch over time causing late shifting symptoms.

  • @Greenmonoluche It the truck came with one, then it should be on there. This is what helps the transmission to shift properly.
