I should have mentioned that it is only slipping in Reverse. All forward
gears are working as they have since I have had this car. Had my son crawl
under it last night and got the tranny number 722.118 and I have not seen
any vacuum connections.
thanks. Douglas

I have hhad the tranny slipping for a few weeks now changed the fluid and
put in the conditioner but still slips. Went to the local indy and they
said to replace it, it would be $4300. I took it to Aamco and they started
with the story to rebuild it. Though they to came back a day later with
replacing it for $3500.
Not sure what to do now. Have seen a place that transmissions on
craigslist down in Hayward CA am going to give them a call.
Any ideas?
Douglas
