The problem is my automatic transmission. I just pulled the Westfalia out of the weeds after 5 years. Got the van started pretty easily and towed it down to Nethken and Associates in Fishersville, VA. The transmission worked in reverse but not in the forward gears, so I picked up a used one from Florida. He got that one in the van and it worked for about 20 mins and then it burped and again wouldn't move forward. He was pretty stumped about why, but said it sounded like the converter, it started making all kinds of noises. I went through the archives and the ATF was full and was changed when the transmission was changed. Anyone have any idea, or has it happened to anyone? Randy |
