    94 Explorer transmission has all forward gears and park.

    i had the same problem with a 4r70w in an f-150,it turned out to be a broken servo piston return spring.when you put it in any gear it would move and shift but had no reverse and lurched forward when you started it in park.

    I need A4LD advice (two blown front seals in a row on two different transmissions).

    the problem is probably what brooklynbay just mentioned.look at the filter and see if there is a flap on the inside portion of the filter,just outside of the threads.if it does either re-route the lines or go get a filter that does not have the"drainback"flap.we had this problem on the way to a...
