Tranny Slips
#21
Well I have some good news, I think. I did change the modulator valve, Oriellys, 22.95. I have two repair manuals and neither one mentions it. Anyway, I called mazda and asked about the part, 73.50, special order. I finally found out you have to adjust them when you install. I did not know this. So I did adjust tonight and it finally hooked up. I need to adjust a little more and it will be perfect. Man does it run! I am glad to say that I did this on my own, the guy I took it to told me that I will need a rebuild, 1500.00. I just hope it stays together. Thanks to everyone.

looked at a valve body once, looked at a torn apart 3 speed + overdrive auto transaxle once, decided all cars wil be manual from that point on.
Nothing mechanical I use on a daily basis should be so complex that it makes me dizzy when looked at.

Good news for sure! I took it to a tranny shop and to make a long story short, they put the proper amount of fluid in. I felt like an idiot!!!!!!! I just had it flushed and filled. This car has been slipping like this for the entire time I had it, and it was fluid. Well now I know you have to have the engine running to check fluid, I hate to admit that, but I have never heard of that in all the time that I have been driving and owned vehicles. Go ahead and cuss me, I deserve it for that kind of a bonehead play of the day, but my car is smooth as silk. I thank you all, I am glad I have your help.
