Hi all,
more and more often I am experiencing the following problem: As soon I shift the transmission into the Park position, the engine dies. After that, it does start again, but I have to try many times until I get the car into "D". It dies several times, as soon as I want to shift. It is a Ford Taurus with automatic transmission. Once it moves, then it usually shifts somehow smoothly. That's why I thought that maybe some component in the torque converter is plugged. ( A pumnp maybe?) My question is: Would the flushing of the transmission include a cleaning of the torque converter? Do you think that it would bring some improvement? As usual, thank you kindly for your hints and advice.
Regards,
tito
