transmission problems

[cguthrie]

Well, my transmission started acting up again today. I just got it rebuilt about a month and a half ago from a nationwide transmission shop(i'll leave there name out) I got it rebuilt in Oregon and now i'm in Alaska but they cover the warranty i got with it. I'm just wondering what's going on with it. When i'm driving it will be going along and then it feels like it slips into neutral, i let off the go pedal and then it goes back into gear. I know i probably should've went with a DTT or ATS transmission but i really couldn't afford it and i was in a hurry to get up here. I was sitting in Las Vegas waiting for my wifes jeep to get the body fixed while the transmission in my pickup was rebuilt. I had to be up here on the 26th of Sep and i left Las Vegas on the 15th. It did only take me 6 days to get up here but i really cut it close. I really don't know what's going on with it but if anyone has any thoughts throw them in. Thanks.

What

It may be going into neutral. Is the linkage correctly adjusted. Just because it shows D or N on the indicator, it isn't neccessarily right at the transmission. After the dealership worked on my 92 automatic, I have to jerk it out of Park.

I don't think it's that but i'm not ruling anything out right now, They had a tow truck come over and pick it up. Before they took it i was messing around with it and it was sort of jumping around a little after i would let off the go pedal. Well whatever it is i'm going with a DTT next time.

It almost sounds like the trans is slipping into and out of OD. If that is happening the TPS is giving you trouble.

Did you notice what speed(s) this was happening at?????

Let us know ... .

it's happening from a stand still. It's just like the transmission is slipping. i put it in drive, press down on the go pedal and it just sounds like its in neutral but it moves a little bit. If they find out today what's wrong with it i'll inform everyone. Thanks. What would it do if the flexplate went out?
