alright guys heres making a long story short, as soom of you know I just got my car back on the road, well now a couple of days later my trans is acting up now, the shifts are soft, and there are little bubbles on the end of the dip stick when I check the fluid, the fluid is still deep red, the only drivetrain chages I made was the install of a 3200 vigilante converter, any help would be appreciated

Adjust your tv cable and get a cooler. Dont drain the fluid

If the trans is going out changing the fluid will only increase the process. You didnt put in a used stall did you

I dont know much about autos, however one thing I do remember is I messed around with the tv cable on my 92, and ended up burning up the trany, or the clutches at least. Just be careful with what you do, if you dont know, when it comes to those adjustments.
