The great white thing will back up but forward is hardly anything. It is better now that I reconnected both ends of the vacuum line to the servo, but it still does not really move forward.
In the process I severely overfilled the transmission and ran it for a few minutes. It is now drained back to Manny's calibration point of dripping out of the servo port when hot, but it still does not pull forward. Is is possible that I have contaminated the clutches by overfilling? Will the fluid eventually drain away if left to sit a while?
Is it possible the torque converter has self-emptied after sitting so long? How could I get it to refill?
Is there some other minor thing that could have me immobilized?
