The tranny is still hanging in there, about 1200 miles later. It's pretty slow to get into reverse, and will sometimes shutter in reverse (now that I think about it, it seems to have been that way before the fluid change).
I was saving up to get me a rebuilt tranny, but now I was just given a free Pontiac Grand Am, and it needs a whole fuel system, tires, brakes, but is completely rust free.
Once I get it all fixed and sold, I'll buy me a transmission.

The tranny is still hanging in there, and seems fine other than the shudder in reverse.
Anyways, I realized that I have no rear brakes, so I replaced the seized wheel cylinders.
Also I just installed a newer master cylinder to get rid of the spongy brake pedal.
I promised myself that I won't take it across country before I replace the trans, but for now, it's a great vehicle to continue driving through the snow.

Did the new master cylinder help?

I just got all the brakes bleed about 15 minutes ago, and took a test drive, and it's a night and day difference.
The pedal feels amazing, and the rear brakes actually work now, so it actually stops.

Yup
I'll have to keep that in mind when my mc goes out. Kinda get different responses on this forum lol. Best way is to compare apples to apples lol. Oh how did you bleed it. 2 person?, bottle?, bleeder tool?
