Hi List,
Beginning a couple days ago, the Torqueflite transmission in
my 57 Dodge CRL started getting contrary. It starts up fine in first,
shifts smoothly to second, but it doesn’t want to go into third.
This only happens when the car is cold. After several stops and starts it
eventually shifts down into third, and from then on shifts without a problem
for the remainder of the trip and as along as the car stays warmed up.
Any ideas about what might be causing this? Something cheap and easy, I
devoutly hope!
