Well I was driving my DMC home from an oil change, and well all of a suddent he car began to switch gears, its an 81 automatic. Anyway I called AAA and back to the garage it went. Well I found out that a pully froze up and my mechanic also informed me that my Transmission was slipping. Now I have records from 1997 showing that the trans has been rebulit. I understand that if jumping the car to many times it can destroy the computer, and since March of 2003 it has been jumped at least five times for one reason or another. Well my fisrt question is this, I'm not to keen on mechanical terms so when the trans slips I know it to be with changing gears, but what could cause this and how bad is it $$$ wise?
