Supra Auto problems

Postby HELBND » Fri Dec 16, 2005 2:32 pm

Well where to start... Recently finished swapping the engine in my supra, but unfortunately have had to keep the auto trans for now.

But its not working properly 8O It will only engage in reverse. You can hear it selecting each gear as you move the selector, but it refuses to engage. I cant think of any better way to explain it

Any ideas as to why its doing this? All help appreciated :D

Cheers

Ben

I swear to god, when we get that box off and a manual on, we're going to blow it up with something.
Motorsport is like sex. You could take it to track and have a long, enjoyable session, or you could take it to the strip and get it over with in less than 20 seconds.

It getting proper line pressure?
Box or TC might have issues of it's own...

You sorted out all the wiring/plugs etc out yet or they still hanging loose?
