Hello all,
I have a 91 safari 4.3L auto at more than 250kmiles. It sometimes engages rough and most of the time 2-3 shift is rought at about
20-30mph. Fluid is still pink (I changed it last year, and even the old fluid was not that bad at the time)I will move to california from illlinois and I will tow a uhaul trailer. (5' by 8', i donot know weight of the trailer). So I decided to take the car to a transmision repair shop, to hear if i have a serious problem. If they say the valve body is problem, I plan to get one from a working one and put it in.
Here is their diagnostic: detected a flare shift on 2-3 shift. Fluid is heavily varnished. tcc lock up come on too early. Rear differential ha excessive play, u joint is bad.
They even try to sell me cooler incase i tow a trailer. I thought I already have a cooler.
Do any of you have any idea what's goin on.
I'm thinking that my valve body is bad since I dont get any slipping or brownish fluid.
