Slipping Lockup
I haven’t thought about that possibility, but it makes sense. A couple months ago, I had some slipping in second and put a corvette servo in to correct it. A couple days ago I checked the fluid and saw I was a little low, so I decided to put a quart of Type F in it to top it off. Almost...- Kevin Sherrell
