aod problems

Just put in transgo shift kit, runs great but totally missing second. I think there may be too much fluid or would that do it?

tear it back out and look it over esp. 1-2 valve. check tv. cable first though. you probly put somthing in wrong also wouldnt be bad idea to put in a servo while your up there heres a good article on the transgo kit. http://www.fordmuscle.com/archives/2...it/index.shtml heres a good site on trannys http://www.transonline.com/

A good upgrade for the 2-3 accumulator
is Art Carr's "zero leak" 2-3 accumulator.
About $35 or so. Also good time to
add A od servo.

I agree with macx, Art Carr's 2-3 accumulator. I installed the Art Carr shift kit(with 2-3 acc.) in my AOD. The accumulator is 10 times better then stock. The tv cable should be re-adjusted. I had to play around with mine a bit to get it right but it won't cause it to miss 2nd. Too much fluid will make the fluid foam up and eventually burn up the tranny. I would pull the valve body back out and make sure everything was right.
