[T3] Where's 3rd?(AUTO)


I installed carbs on it today from my 73 and it ran great! No problems
other than the spark plugs needing replaced but, Hey it hasnt been driven
since 1993 so i cant complain. Fired right up and drove it about a half
of a mile. But i am having one problem that I cant figure out and that
is...

It shifts normally from first to second but from second gear thats it! I
took it upto 40mph in second and it wouldnt go into third for anything. I
tried Neutral and putting it back into D and so on and there was no hope
for her, it just wouldnt kick into third gear. The fluid looked cleaned
but could probably use a flushing after sitting for Six+ years. And its
gonna get a oil change to

#1 Can anyone (hoppfully more than one person) tell me what to do? Look
for? Is there (Micro)switches or something ,maybe??? since i took the FI
off. This is all new to me. I had many stick VW's but this is my first
auto. And it even has power in first and second gear.

#2 What type of Auto Tranny Fluid should i use when i flush it and do you
all think its ok not to drop the pan? (Sometimes in other autos other
than VW's theres screens and filters in there).

And im still waiting for my pilot jets for my 32SPDIT2-3's.
