Re: [T3] Auto Transmission


Resending...didn't get any bites the first time...persistent isn't he?

Two more questions.  It seems like it is turning out that I was stuck in 1st
gear not 2nd, the reason I could seemingly down shift was because per the
Bentley only when the lever is in the 1 position is engine braking
available.  So want seemed two gears was only one.

Question 1:  I drove the car at 45mph (probably in 1st) for about 2 hours,
what have I done to it? Note: there are no obvious signs of damage, still
runs good, did tune up oil change after the drive, no ominous signs.

Question 2:  After checking the VM I left the hose off accidentally.  I
drove around the block and there was no change in the tranny operation, just
the engine rev up rev down at idle cause I left the vacuum hose
disconnected.  Does this mean anything ie vm is bad (the vm does not leak)
or is the vm inconsequential when only running in 1st?

Thanks,
Jason
