The governor and/or valve body is plugged up with clutch material. Drop
the pan, pull the governor and the valve body and clean them, change the
fluid, and the filter.
It would be nice if there was a way to make the pan deeper and baffle it
to keep the clutch material away from the governor and valve body.
However, the only way to solve this seems to be going to a manual valve
body as the stock valve body allow the clutches to slip too much,
creating this excess clutch material.

Stefan

Subject: SD Trans - Did I blow it up already?
Well I just finished putting an A413 in my 87 SC (T2 Intercooled, approx
250-275HP). I did some test runs and the trans did not want to shift
into first I had to manually put it in there sometimes, but then it was
fine. I was beating on it good, and then stopped to back up, but it
woudl not go into reserve. Now, park seems ok,except when you first put
it in there the car will lunge when given gas (just once, then normal).
Reverse and neutral seem to act just like park, the car just revs when
given gas in either (plus when you are rolling and put it in neutral it
stops as if park was engaged).
S, IS it blwon up? I checked the fluid (brand new with new filter)
and it still looked good, not burnt. It is a little overfull on fluid,
I did notice that, but it looked like new still.
Thanks
