tranny problems

Your post is pretty hard to understand... but welcome to ZDriver! Have you checked the ATF level?
|
after you check the level...change the fluid,the filter plugs easily on the 4n71b trans.. DO NOT FLUSH THE TRANSMISSION!!... this will lead to certain death of the trans
|
Sounds like you might have some slop in the linkage too. Also, please use better punctuation. It'd make what you're trying to say a little easier to understand.

I did a filter and oil change, can you think of anything else?

transmission filter and oil
|
Ah... not to get technical, but we call transmission oil "fluid" as it's quite different than engine oil. Did you use ATF (red auto trans fluid) ?
|
yes I did, I have a 78 280 that I did a frame off restoration myself. I'm not a automatic tranny guy,anything else but autos
|
When you do a total fluid change, especially in a high mileage automatic transmission, the detergents will clean off all of the build up that is needed to hold that puppy together. Once all the gunk gets cleaned off from these detergents, things start to go south fast. There is also a temperature sensor that will not allow the car to go into overdrive until the transmission has warmed up. They get quirky from time to time too.

z31 autos were not known for their reliability. the tranny in my '87 auto went to hell at about 185k. how many miles are on your car? it might just be time for a new transmission.
|
yeah, 85T auto tranny's also dont like 7300 RPMS neutral drops either.. who woulda' thought?
|
does any one have a 85 300zx automatic tranny for sale.?????
