teasdam Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 I've been having a problem where my car will bog down and accelerate slowly from a stop. I've been racking my brain to figure out if it a fuel issue or spark issue, or something otherwise engine related. Well, I just finally made the connection that if I floor it, the car will drop into first gear and take off quickly (well, quickly for a loyale anyway). This only happens maybe a third of the time though...usually it starts in first like it should. The tranny fluid only has a couple thousand miles on it, and it seems the car just started doing this about a thousand miles ago. Any ideas? Think this is something a flush would fix? I hate dropping $120 or so for a flush but I also hate having to floor it to drop to back first gear when this happens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
All_talk Posted June 10, 2004 Share Posted June 10, 2004 Sounds like it could be the start of the "governor problem", do a search and check out the fix here: http://usmb.net/repair/?CurrentDirectory=FOLDER_3f29b58f50d9b8.15492800/&FileType=Article&File=ARTICLE_3f57fdb83de231.34713659.art Gary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
