Title: Somethings Slippin
Post by: griffo on August 13, 2006, 03:14:07 AM
Hi,

I have a red 202 with a 3 speed auto in my FE, which runs fine ,well almost .  
the problem I have is when I accelerate out of a tight corner theres no power, it feels like somethings slippin in the auto, the motor just revs ,  so I back off let the car straighten up and she's fine .
Whats happening and what could get worse ??

Griffo

Have you checked the trans fluid lately?
Other than that, I'd be off to a trans specialist.

sounds like you are low on tranny fluid.   :o :o

don't forget that you check the level with the engine running.   ::) ::)

and if you do top up, run the shifter through all the gears before checking again.

Yep , checked the fluid level and it needed a top up ,
thanks for the help fellas, I think it will also need a trip to a tranny specialist ,
just to check things out.
Griffo.
