I just bought a 1994 firebird. For some reason it will not shift into the next gear at WOT. Nor will it rev over about 4200-4600 rpms if I hold it in first. If I floor the car the transmission will downshift and the car will pull till about 4200 then the rpms will just sit there at 4200 until I let out of the gas a hair then it shifts into the next gear. No slipping just sits at 4200-4400. Feels like the car is losing all power and just idling at high rpms.
Re: Weird transmission problem - need some advice!
Just guessing here, but....how about resetting the Downshift cable. My 3rd Gen T/A and my olds 88 both used to shift wonky when the cable was out of adjustment. Always had to reset them every couple of weeks.
Now Playing: \'99 Pewter Firebird, stock, bone stock, and nothing but stock, so help me God!<br />Comming attractions: K&N Filter, Lid Mod, Intake Bellows Smooth Pipe Mod.<br />I dream about: Forced Induction (TC or SC) or NOX (or both!)
Re: Weird transmission problem - need some advice!
Check for a clogged catalytic converter. Does the exhaust feel very week coming out of the tail pipe? Chances are the engine can't build enough RPM the meet the shift requirements.
