Originally posted by unisys12: Originally posted by TourDeForce: If you're not getting a lot of slipping from the clutch packs, I'd guess that the range selector switch/solenoid has gone belly up. Not an expensive part. Perhaps we can get a friendly visit from Phil. He's got more experience with these trannies than I do. Calling Unisys12!!! Uh Jim, I posted almost two hours before you did. Wake up mang!! Wake me when I get to the Dragon! hehe.... Must be that jumbly-wumbly thing happening again.

Is it possible that the TPS is damaged and that I should get it replaced? '98 Contour SE 2.5 w/ Granny Tranny + stuff = still slow

Unplug the connector and put an ohmmeter between the middle and bottom (I think) pins. when the throttle is opened slowly the meter should change smoothly with the position from near zero to the pots max. Between the middle and top pins the opposite should occour. If the meter does not follow the shaft position repeatedly, either the TPS is not hooked onto the shaft or it is damaged.

Im having this problem right now, rpms increase to 4k sometimes when im trying to move from a stand still, its a ATX but it feels like im holding the clutch in and slipping it out at 4k. Im going to try that "1-2 bang" shift fix to see if thats the problem but i dont think its the same symptoms [image]http://mywebpage.netscape.com/glennkage/firstsig.jpg[/image]
