Re: ahhhh!!! need help

Sounds like the radio and throttle are crosswired some how...

Re: ahhhh!!! need help

Like the transmission was staying a gear two high and then loosing it's mind trying to get it right? I have felt that before but only after some intense punishment from my right foot on a very hot summer day without a tranny cooler, I went home and parked it and let it cool off and it was fine the next day and has never done it again.

No the tranny fluid. Do you hear a clunking from the back? theres not realy any where for it to slip in the rearend unless you broke it bad.
