Re: [Chrysler300] Question about 1964 auto transmission

Hello, Van:
 
There is no vacuum connect to the transmission. Based on my previous experience with  Ks (360 hp.),  you may have a blown  gasket (head, cylinder, etc.), broken compression rings or scored cylinder walls. Also, you may have a burned valve if your K idles roughly (re my '66 Newport wagon). Suggest you perform a cylinder compression test. This may help point you in the right direction. Again, this is what I experienced with the Ks and the Newport wagon I once owned (blown head gasket, broken compression ring and burned valve)..  
 
Best,
Ron Kurtz

Hi,
Is there any engine vacuum connection( vacuum modulator e.g.) to the auto transmission in a 1964 300k?  Reason for asking is that my 300 runs, idles fine until I put in gear then is runs like crap, vacuum drops5 to 7 points.  And it stay that way even while driving on the road.  Any insight out there?

Thanks all,
Van
