#1317 has something going on with her transmission.
Yesterday it was pretty cold here in WI, and I let her warm up a little longer than usual before driving to our restaurant. Everything was perfect on the ride in, which is a touch less than 4 miles, most of which is at highway speeds.
However, on the ride home, everything sort of fell apart. I let her warm up until the t-stat needle twitched off the peg (this is because the rpms are all over the place until the thermostat opens - if I hit the throttle too hard she'll die). In town, there were no apparent issues. But, when I got out onto the highway, she accelerated normally up to about 60 or so and ran fine, and then all the sudden dropped out of third and into 2nd, revving high on the flats.. then tried to upshift, downshift, up, down.. a complete juddering mess between second and third. I slowed down and drove her straight home in 2nd gear, trying not to run the rpms above 3500.
I checked transmission fluid when I got home, perhaps a touch low but not egregiously so. What else should I be checking?
