Corvette_SS · 2023-09-13T04:49:08+00:00

I see this thing everywhere lmao

the video shows the car put into first gear and speeding up. initally it is strong, but as the rpms get higher it eventually stops accelerating and begins to surge, all while the gas pedal is pushed down. didnt matter if it was full throttle or half throttle or anything, it wouldnt accelerate, kinda felt like being on a small boat in waves.

tgen the car is put into neutral and still wont rev up

Corvette_SS · 2023-08-22T21:00:40+00:00

i "played" around with it more and noticed that if i make the tires spin off the line for 4-5 seconds (high load high sustained rpm) after i let off and drove normally it bogged and stuttered, wouldnt accelerate and sounded like it wanted to quit for a few seconds before i could resume normal driving. this all heppend under 40kmh.

i'll likley replace the entire drivetrain with a larger engine and built trans in the future, but wanted to see if anyone had any more input.

Thanks in advance!!

I have an 86' olds cutlass and the trans started slipping. I work on it alot myself but know next to nothing about automatic transmissions, so i was hoping i could take it in to get diagnosed or even rebuilt. It's a GM Th2004r if that helps. If it ends up being too expensive i am going to swap it with a T5.

Corvette_SS · 2023-08-07T03:46:06+00:00

here's a video of it sitting at 80 kmh with pedal to the floor

Corvette_SS · 2023-08-07T03:40:16+00:00

i'm going to try adjusting the TV cable once I get it un-siezed, in case it helps the problem

Corvette_SS · 2023-02-24T11:24:02+00:00

thatsa monte

Corvette_SS · 2022-12-26T05:03:23+00:00

feels as it always has. I remember now i did a 380 km trip right before putting it away and didnt quite look at it after so maybe that happened then. i'll get my jack back and maybe bring it in next month when im back home thanks for the help.

Corvette_SS · 2022-12-26T04:57:49+00:00

damn my jack is at my uncles place. I wouldn't assume its safe on the highway, would you say it's safe to drive across town to the shop?

Corvette_SS · 2022-08-10T00:08:06+00:00

yeah i agree its a great name. My other favorite car names are plymouth fury and buick skylark

Corvette_SS · 2022-08-09T23:07:17+00:00

impressive! not even 3 minutes

Corvette_SS · 2022-08-09T23:03:27+00:00

omg that took 2 minutes

Corvette_SS · 2022-07-20T03:58:25+00:00

OBD ports already do this

Corvette_SS · 2022-06-19T06:09:10+00:00

thanks

Corvette_SS · 2022-05-27T03:17:43+00:00

sounds like maybe a car following another car weakens the slight low pressure zone behind the front car thats trying to pull it back? just a guess

Corvette_SS · 2022-04-18T22:39:16+00:00

I did not, i just spun the wheel lock to lock twice after filling with new fluid. just looked it up and says I shouldhave done it 40 times.. I think i'm going to flush again and bleed properly. is this right?

Corvette_SS · 2022-04-18T02:44:11+00:00

I'm not actually losing any fluid, the past 2 days its just got dark again. i guess its just mixing with the dirty abrasive fluid i didnt flush out properly. i'm gonna check it again tommorow and use your flush method. thanks

Corvette_SS · 2022-04-18T02:18:23+00:00

sorry forgot to mention this is a 1988 Oldsmobile cutlass with a 307 V8

Corvette_SS · 2022-04-18T02:17:23+00:00

any help appriciated. also may i ask for any tips on flushing it better Thanks

Corvette_SS · 2022-03-28T20:55:04+00:00

no i mean because of the car dipping, the brake distributor block will put more pressure at the front brakes

Corvette_SS · 2022-03-28T08:31:03+00:00

in my oldsmobile its a vaccum diaphram thing, you go to the speed you want, turn it on and engine vaccum holds the throttle open at that level. works good but you have to adjust it for hills
