92 240 wagn 230k mi AW70
I purchased wagon for a low price over a year ago, knowing the tranny was failing & have since flushed it 3 times and added Lucas. My point is, lately it has gotten a bit worse during the 2 to 3 shift and it doesn't want to stay in overdrive or jumps back into 3rd on the slightest incline.
Any chance the overdrive solenoid could be part of the problem ?
* I've been looking for a "known" AW71 but no luck, and found an AW70 from a rear ended car w/ 93k mi. But still hoping for an AW71
