I'll try that today. At part throttle it doesn't want to shift much at all. I was told that a shift kit would possibly resolve the problem. What're the odds that my tranny is shot? It seems to be stuck in 2nd. On the way to work I hit 100 at 5000 rpms, then dropped to 80 at 4100. After coming to a stop it didn't want to shift back into the gear that allowed me that. I'll do some research tonite and give some detailed info on shifts, but it felt like on only had 3 forward gears on the way to work, and only 2 by the time I got here.
