Yes used hondas full synthetic auto trans fluid and yeah kept and eye on it for a good while still at the right level just black and full of material 🙁 it works great until it heats up after 2 hrs and I’ve looked quite a bit and it’s a frequent problem with these transmissions cause they have to carry so much weight for how small it is ,and some people put coolers on them right away cause earlyer ones had the same problem but if I havnt removed too much material I was thinking a 3 gallon flush again prolly not with honda just cost too much I’ll use some generic full synthetic it’s what honda recommends if you cant get it from a deal . from the line and fill again .And a cooler cause it still drives around just if i drive for too long it starts slippin like a hour and a half . I know its prolly not gonna fix it but if I can keep the fluid cool it will keep driving

I’ve checked all fuses… would a maf sensor be a problem with injector pulse in this car I did have to put a new male connection on for the sensor because the wires were crusty didn’t replace the sensor though . Just trying to narrow it down ….

thank you fluid lvl was way too high called for 10-12 after rebuild put in 12 was about 3qrts over and the reverse band wasnt torqued all the way thank you guys with all your help very much appreciated saving me a but load of money spent prolly 600 on the rebuild and had somebody quote me 2200 at a transmission shop in town when i first started on it. You guys are awesome thank you for all your help ,hopefully i wont have to ask for help for a while lol …..
i dont think so because when i take off the drive shaft and put it in drive it spins up the transfer case output shaft but when i put it back on the truck it will not spin the drive shaft
ok im thinking its my flex plate hitting my crank postion sensor does anyone know how close the cps is the the flex plate because when i was bolting up the torque converter there are the square holes on the side and i used a flat head to turn the flex plate to line the bolt holes for the torque converter and i might have bent those outwards thats the only thing that really changed i thought it would be fine but it might not be if the clearance of the flex plate and cps is super small
thank you guys i finally got it out with jacking the transmission and lowering it tell i found the sweet spot what a pain ill install it on the overdrive for the install that way the studs wont be such a pain
i have a 1992 dodge dakota 5.2l wich is the 318 with no weight on it 90 degree bolt pattern 23 spline 130 ring gear 11 inch diameter with a 10 inch bolt pattern and lock up
got it fixed super clogged transmission filter and a lot of gunk in the pan got it all back together today cleaned it flushed it. shifts good just slips a little now but at least when i put it in gear it goes into gear success.
fluids kinda dirty is why im asking and thinking about getting a flush done but ill be paying for the atf 4 from mopar so they dont screw it up anymore buying a 12quart pack nad seal and filter
got a question for you now when i put into gear it takes about 30 seconds to go into gear now, It doesn’t stall anymore but when i go to a stop it takes another 30 seconds to go back into gear would this be a symptom of a clogged transmission filter , not giving enough pressure to the system in time. and it goes into gears just fine when shifting.
got some good news i fixed half of my problem using air filter gasket that connects to the intake it was cracked and busted replaced that noticed i was leaking a little fuel fixed that now i can put it into gear without bombing it into gear but it still wants to stall when i go to a stop halfway there
Before i take it to the trans shop i’m gonna replace idle air control sensor throttle position sensor and crank position sensor my cousin bought them and didn’t install them .I know the idle air control doesn’t work tested it with it plugged and unplugged and no change. And i was wondering if any of these could be the problem that i’m having. And if so would they give codes. Also the guy at auto zone told me i couldn’t buy a scan tool for my truck is this true???? Sorry for all the questions i’m just trying to rule stuff out before i go pay a bunch of money at a shop.
thank you for all the help gonna take it to a trans shop and see if they can find anything
