Allan ,
I would drain the tranny and
take a look @ the filter/ strainer . It means a new pan gasket &
filter plus Fresh tranny fluid. Then give it a good run! Then see what it
is like after its cold.-

I have a 64 Inperial Crown. The car sits most of the year. When the car is started from cold the carb kicks to high idle. If you try to put it in gear -- there's a lurching and it isn't happy with being in gear. Sometimes it just refuses to shift. This happens both in forward and reverse gear. If you let it warm up and kick it down to slow idle -- the car shifts buttery smooth. A trusted mechanic told me that this is a problem related to the age and that I only drive it about 500miles per year. He also stated that an additive is available that will cure this problem. Any suggestions? |
