Im having some transmission failure on my 94 jeep, my 2nd and 3rd gears won‘t gear unless I release the gas pedal on each individual time of gear, gears do work but only by letting go of the gas pedal, I recently changed the transmission coolant radiator and might of forgotten to fill it up on transmission fluid, is my transmission gears ruined or does this have a fix? Maybe a flush of fluid or do I need to rebuild the transmission with a new gear kit? If anyone can help please, I would really appreciate it Thanks
Low fluid levels can cause it to shift late Check your transmission fluid levels first. If it’s low, check for puddles around where the Jeep is parked for extended periods of time to see if you have a leak. A faulty throttle cable setting can cause the transmission to shift late or not shift at all until you take your foot off the gas. Newer designs do not have throttle cables. They get an electrical signal for throttle position from a device called a vacuum modulator and an adjustment ot that vacuum modulator could do the trick. It can also be the shift solenoid that controls the servo fluid signal to give shift commands to the transmission. And it could be in the fluid circuit through the servo. You need a transmission line pressure test to confirm that before you decide to do work to the transmission.
