Interesting. I do indeed have the cooler and it might indeed feel like a
lack of pressure at WOT which could be a lack of fluid.
I'm dying for a shift kit!!! Come on Trans Go!!!
Has anybody tried any of the hipo fluids? In the old days some of these
would swell up the bands...Sort of a poorman's shift kit! And tricks on
throttle position sensors to raise pressure? Band tightening? Anything!
I know zero about these new trannies.
