Some info I ran across- Intermediate Band Not Releasing: A problem with the intermediate band not releasing can cause the transmission to shift down to 2nd gear. Vacuum Modulator Malfunction: A faulty vacuum modulator can also contribute to this problem, as it affects the transmission’s ability to regulate gear shifts. It's suggested to check the vacuum modulator before tearing into the transmission. Valve Body Assembly Errors: Incorrect assembly or damage to the valve body can also cause shifting issues, including dropping down to 2nd gear while cruising.
So that's how that trim goes on I only had the bottom peice and the trangle end pieces in my 69. I just found a whole set trim and ordered it so this video was super helpful! Oh by the way I noticed water likes to get into those side peice screw holes cause mine are rusted out. I'll probably use some double sides tape to hold them on til I can get to fixing rust and body work. I only drive it on sunny days cause I haven't put the weather stripping in yet.
I’m not the best on transmissions, but have you tried putting a T in the vacuum hose and running the line to a gauge you cn read while your driving? Maybe to low vacuum pressure might cause this. What do you think?
Did you happen to check your kick down adjustment and make sure that it's not sticking? I think they're supposed to be a spring on the kickdown to hold it up
I have to do this myself. Great video! I have a 1969 Mustang 2DHT with an inline 6 (4.1L). I’m struggling to find a rear window seal that fits my car. I checked on Rock Auto, but they only have one for the fastback, it seems. Finding parts is not easy for someone living in Norway, unfortunately.
Hi, GREAT job with your Mustang, man!! Without any question I Am sure that makes you really happy! I have whatched all the videos from your restauration. I Am from Brazil, sao paulo, and I have a same model. Ride this car is so satisfy and the face to others people when look the Mustang on the street its look like "Wow, that car!" Here the people says "Que louco...".🐎
Hey there, I missed yer last one, on the transmission issues, continued... Though I've got a set of 2017 Mustang GT seats, in black cloth, I'll be fabbing up my own custom solution, for soon. Those Pro car's version's look just right 👍 in there, I've got to give you that . Please post on how you liked the "feel" of it.. After some driving.... God bless...
Yes there is supposed to be a spring at the top of the kick down rod on the throttle linkage. Your trans is just kick down not TV so it does not need the rod to operate.
My question is if you changed the bushing in the output housing, the one the yoke of driveshaft rides in, that is almost always what makes the trans seal leak (excessive play).
They are only about a 1/16 of an inch off from factory new as sold, the gaps on the front and back were wide on that era. People making show cars tighten them when they build them before paint.
@@davidwright873 I have built 100's of engines and transmissions and the color of the oil kinda bothers me but the jury is still out lol. Depends on how well the block was cleaned prior to assembly. Machine shop never cleans the block good if they are not assembling it.
@@ProjectBarn thank you sir. You did a good job completely rebuilding it. I have never paid attention to this model year but I like it moreso than the 64.5 or 65-66 years. I learned a lot from all your videos.
Ray just a thought, but with the choke not operating correctly couldn’t that cause the engine to run richer? Are you going to add center cap to your wheels?
Hanta virus is a respiratory infection, so the symptoms would be similar to flu with a lot of lung congestion and coughing. Wear a proper respirator with HEPA filters.
Thank you for allowing and sharing the entire build the car looks and sounds amazing awsome job love the way you just over came all the challenges hope you start another project sometime until then enjoy the masterpiece you've created
My 1st car my Dad bought me for my 16th birthday in 1983 was a 67 Mustang... Father son build..needed a motor and floor boards... My Dad just sandwich sheet metal bottom and top with some nuts and bolts sealed with roofing tar...not pretty at all but it worked 😎
Sorry 😔 to have seen you had a some issues with the trans build.. It been a long journey, and I've watched in real time, while I've doing my own 65 FB as well. You inspired me, to use templates, to fabricate and weld in, 1/8" plates, to the lower control arm mounting brackets, where you built them from scratch!!!! Loved seeing your triumphant maiden voyage!!!! I'm in the states, but couldn't help start humming, "O Canada, land that I love" while watching.. Let's see some of your "test and tuning" work, to get that thing dialed in, for that demon carb, and let's see that A/C operation shakedown.. God bless ..
Congrats mate. I’ve been following you since the early videos and have to say, great effort. Your videos actually inspired me to dive head first into a project as well.
