i mover your thread to the transmission section for more views and help,,
 












well if no one is gonna reply ill try adjusting the intermediate band thenks for nothin
 






The intermediate band, could be broken, need adjustment or the servo could be bad. If you can't tighten the adjustment screw up on the band, then it is broken.
 






thenks for nothin
Being nice would be a good next move...but anyways

Like Pop said, the intermediate band might have broken...also make sure no pieces of crap are floating in the tranny like the VB gasket you said was blown,.
 












ok so first thanks for replies
also i tightend the intermiedet band bolt and wamo shes fixed i drained the fluid to the corect level thanks to the lucas i was a quate high then i drove it and adjusted it drove and adjusted i did this 4 times til it shifted perfect i did not use a torurqe wrench so im thinkining it was definetly the vb gasket and the asswhipes at amco left my adjustment bolt loose because i told them it was most liklet the vb gasket when they offerd to diagnose it for free and he said it was he would by my lunch so after he offerd to fix it for 468 dollars i said i would do it my self he became not so nice and when i got my car home i found the dipstick left out and under the hood where the prop goes and the band adjustment bolt was loose and hanging by a thread when i got under there yesterday. damm crooks wanted 78 for the gasket alone. i bought it at transtaar for a 1.50
