[DML] Re: Acceleration with the A/C on

["David Teitelbaum" <jtrealty@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Check the fluid level as per G:04:02 first. Next make sure the vacuum
line to the vacuum modulater is hooked up and not leaking. Now do the
line pressure adjustment as per G:05:03. When there is a transmission
problem it is usually a good idea to go over ALL of the external
procedures first to catch any of the obvious stuff. You could have a
leaky or sticky vacuum modulater. It can be opened, cleaned, lubed,
and replace the "O" ring. Or you can replace the thing. When you check
the fluid level also look at the fluid color and feel it between your
fingers. If it is dark and/or gritty it should be changed.
