Re: Over Drive Slow to engage 700 1985

Sounds like a plan. Just bear in mind that you have to get the entire car off the ground and level when you're re-filling the fluid. I've never known anyone to do that with ramps, but I'm certainly no expert so I'll leave you to your ways. (Incidentally, I don't suppose there's any chance you had only the back wheels on ramps when you filled the fluid last time is there? I only ask because you mentioned the ramps, and it seems like such a simple mistake that would cause you not to be able to put enough fluid into the tranny. If I'm being ridiculous, I apologize in advance.) Good luck with the procedure. As always, be careful under that car!

If you have more questions, feel free to post them. Let us know how it goes.
