Recommended Posts

Posted

I just replaced the engine on my 92 lumina with a 3.1 in it now the trans will not up shift at all. the trans was never removed from the car and reverse works and so dose drive but only in 1st.

 

-fluid level is good

-kick down is hooked up

-no modulator valve on this trans

 

any one run in to this? any thoughts?

 

thanks

On a 4T60(e)? :think:

this is a 4t60 tranns, 4t60e attached to 3.1 came out in 93.

 

I think it should have a vacuum modulator.

that could be ur problem, lol, might wanna get a Trans Vacuum Modulator, thre around 20$ from like shucks or where ever, there adjustable, and just need about 2 turns with a very small screw driver to adjust, soo is there just a gapping hole on the trans or did some1 block it off?

The 4T60 in my 88 had a modulator, and the 4T60e in my 95 has a modulator. Although I would think that not having one would just cause really hard shifts.. :shrug:

well I have not spent alot of time in the car untill today and noticed that its not a 4t60 its a 3t40 :oops: my boss lent me a dealer plate so I could take it down the road today and found out that it will shift at like 4000-4500rpm (60-70 km/h) :? so I am going to adjust the kick down cable and see if that lowers the rpm it shifts at!

thanks to every one that replyed.
