I took the wagon on the interstate today for the first time. The engine spins really high, like OD is not kicking in. At 65MPH, it sounds like it's being floored. It really didn't want to go over 70. It's an AT tranny, and I think it has some issues, of course I've mentioned the leak in a previous post, checking the seal on the pan Monday. Curious if it could be anything in the fuel delivery?

I plan to swap to a M46 soon, hoping I can limp by a little on this AW71.
I think the P.O. was less than honest with me.
