1967 Plymouth Fury III Transmission Slipping
Hi guys,
My automatic 67 Fury is slipping between 2nd and 3rd gear, meaning it revs higher for 3 or 4 seconds as it makes the change. Then we continue on down the road just fine. The change between 1st and 2nd gear is as normal. I just changed all fluids including transmission but no improvement as a result. Any ideas what may cause this? Am i in for rebuild or is there adjustment i can do? Thanks as always! Rich |
Rich, Try the band adjustment first. Check out one of the services manuals. Its not hard to do and it might just be what the problem is. If not, Then I would say "your in for a freshen up"
Just out of curiosity? did you use Dexron-2 or Ford Type-F when you did the change? |
Thanks Bob - i have the service manual so i'll look in to it this week. Is it a big job to get to? I'm no pro mechanic but i'll tinker! I actually had the oil change done as they were putting new tires on and i don't know what oil they used - could it be a mismatch with one of those types?
Thanks again, I'll let you know how i do. Rich |
No. Its not a hard job... :)
Just thought I would ask... Sometimes folks dont think about what fluid that might be installed in the trans. So I was just asking. but if ya dont know, will just deal with the issue at hand... :) Hope its not to hot out in that desert today....lol Stay cool and hydrated... :) |
