My transmission wont go to the next gear ratio when getting up to highway speeds. My rpms will just scream until I drastically let off the accelerator then it may pop into its highway gear. Think that's a valve body issue or a fluid issue?
@@bretearwood7027 sounds like a bad solenoid for the gear you need, but yes contaminated fluid or not enough fluid to create hydraulic pressure will make it shift poorly or not at all.
I had a 1971 Mercury comet and my racing valve body always went bad.....I just had enough and sold it this summer I had the car four two years I really already regret selling it
at least I know what it is now, they wouldn't even tell me, guess for fear I will fix it elsewhere. Sadly hardly anyone works on them, looking at the replacing of the valve body seems easy, how do you find the transcode/type? and I can get a used Trans from the local salvage yard for $145...price for new valve body is around $300.
