Stock 87 Turbo T Tranny with 70k miles. Changed Filter and Fluid, Also added 1.2 gram screw to the small weight on governor to bring my shifts down a bit.
On short test drive it did not shift into 2 and almost felt like a tranny starving or low on fluid, rev up and not engage. Maybe sucking air? not sure. Dropping the fluid again tonight.
I am suspecting it is more to do with the filter. It did not feel like it went up very snug when I pushed it in the hole.
Yes I did make sure the old o-ring was out their. I gave it a couple smacks to get it up in their tight, maybe I went to far? not sure.
Just thought I might ask for some tips on that filter and common mistakes made. Im a 1st timer at this particular task.
I will look at the governor again as well to make sure the little balls are in proper place.
Thanks
Dennis
