Me and a mate who is a mechanic replaced the flywheel and the front and rear main seals in my 1990 vn v6 auto, everything went smoothly, we did a trans service aswell.
after everything was bolted up we started the car still on the axel stands, car was running smoothly, we were changing the gears to test them, everything sweet, until i took it for a drive around the block it was making an unusuall noise when my foot came off the accelerator, the noise only last a second or two the it would dissapear. it changed from 1st to 2nd then to 3rd but not into final gear. my mate took it for a spin and it wouldnt even change out of first gear, reverse, neutral and park all work fine.
we are stumped as to what has happend, we came up with that maybe the torque converter came loose when we lifted the trans to get it onto the jack, everything went back as it should. there is enough trans fluid aswell.
if the torque converter is stuffed does that mean it has stuffed the trans or can a second hand torque conv. be bought and fitted.
:bang:
thanks for your help
