Hmmmmm,
1 check fluid. 2 listen for tranny click as you swing through the gears. (engine off) 3 check fluid pressure. Disconnect tranny cooler line and have wife start it for 2 seconds, should have a nice puddle a few feet away from the open line. 4. Look for rebuild shop. ------------------ '69 G.M.C. 350/350. Trying to clean up the left over damage from the Dope-Smokin-Old-Man I've been dubbed the Longhorn Freak/Fanatic/Expert, I just hope I can live up to it. FINALLY got the HORNIAC...a '70 one ton Longhorn with a Pontiac 350/350 and lots of 'personality'. Check out The Longhorn Webite. If you need a pic posted, E-mail me at longhornmail@yahoo.com Andy, in Columbus Ohio |

It's probably the fluid. When I first got my '72, it would start and run, but for the life of me I couldn't make it MOVE! I felt really stupid when I pulled the dipstick out..
