So yeah background...1990 4.0 AW4. I had the tranny rebuilt 16,000 miles/year and a half ago. Two weeks ago I was getting up to speed on the freeway and it slipped bad. I pulled over and let it idle for a second and started to go again, it drove fine for two weeks. Fast forward to tonight. I was accelerating up to 35mph, once I hit about 25 I noticed that the speedometer wasn't moving but the tach sure as hell was. I pulled over once again let it idle for a few and started to move again, it was fine. I'm not sure if the RENIX TPSs can play tricks on the tranny like the HO ones? Could that be my problem? I have a 4 month old Borg-Warner one on there right now and I'm pretty sure it's still adjusted, although I will check that tomorrow. I checked the fluid and its a very light brown color, but it doesn't look bad, and it's not leaking at all. The only thing I can think of that might play a role in this is that I put a new radiator in about 3 weeks ago. However, it had the hookups for the tranny cooler lines so doesn't that mean that there is one in there? I connected the lines the exact way they were connected to my original one. Is it possible that the lines in the tranny cooler could be clogged? Does anyone have any ideas on this, because I am stumped and frustrated.
Thanks guys,
