Subject: auto tranny blues
Content-Type: text/plain; format=flowed
Ive owned my '89 wolfie vanagon for 9 months . But i have the dreaded head
problems bubbles in the coolant oil in the coolant etc. But at the same
time my tranny started hesitating to go into drive reverse etc. Im worried
that i have to replace this verry expensive item . I checked my fluid
before my engine went kaput and the color was fine . after my heads leaked
i checked it again and my trans fluid looked brown and milky. It seemes
weird to me that this has happened at the same time. Will coolant in the
trans make it hesitate and have to rev the engine at high RPM's to move or
cause the hesitation to engage. I plan to change the fluid gasket screen
etc during the head job whitch we will do with the engine out for
convenience. Do these simptoms seem familiar to anyone . I have a long
trip planned to FLA from TN what can i do to get my trans up and going again
