  • 3000rpm to move

    Someone wanna tell me why it takes my car 3000rpm+ to move. Im just a little mad right now because it took me a month to get this swap done, and i dont really feel like taking it all apart again!:rant: :mad:

    EDIT:
    idk if this helps but...it has no exhaust from the manifolds back right now, and it low on tranny fluid.

      Be careful with the low fluid. You can do a whole lotta damage if it's engaging at 3k rpm's! I'd fill it sooner than asap!!!
