[DML] Re: When it rains it poors - "Automatic Transmission Blues"

["Steve" <p2freak@xxxxxxxxx>]

I maybe wrong about this but,

1.  Automatic transmission does not have a clutch if my understanding is correct.  You 
mentioned clutch material, is it rubber or metal?  Could it be that your transmission 
governor is kaput?  If it's the governor, then it's a $450 fix.

2.  To convert to manual transmission, you would need a different chassis/frame.  Auto 
and manual frames are different.

all has been well these past years.  Well, it happened again, D no go.  I am going to service 
the filter again to see if that will remedy the tranny problem atleast for a little while longer.
