[DML] Re: Quick tranny question

["David Teitelbaum" <jtrealty@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Recheck ALL the external on-car adjustments as per the Workshop
Manual. Some of the possible causes include:

Shift linkage out-of-adjustment (easy to set correctly)

Fluid level low or high (check as per procedure in manual)

Plugged up filter (can be cleaned or replaced)

Line pressure too low (adjustment, worn pump, dirty filter)

Leaking internal seals (bad news but very unlikely)

I have listed them in order of likelyhood. They are also in order for
complexity and expense. It would not be abnormal for it to take 1-2
seconds if the car was just started up and was cold but is not normal
once the car is warm/hot.
