Re: [T3] Auto transmission adjustment

["HenryVW" <henryvw@ij.net>]

Well my auto tranny has gone kaput.  I have a replacement tranny but I was
wondering if any one could figure out the problem. It always went to super
high RPMs before shifting in to 3rd. You could start the car in any
gear(someone told me this was bad).  If you turned the car off without going
into Park, when you started back up the car would lunge foward.  Now I have
no reverse and it shifts from 2nd to nuetral instead of 3rd.
