Ok, I have a 90 t-bird with around 70k miles on it. I recently had the tranny flushed and the filter changed while watching it happen so I know it was done right. Over the past 45-50 miles I've noticed that the trans slips the first time I come to the first stop sign right on my street. After this it shifts fine almost as if it only slips when it is cold.
Is this just the natural thing since the new tranny fluid isn't as viscous as the old fluid.
or
Is my tranny going out?
Now I have had some wacky idle problems every once in a while when I start it up. It will jump to about 1 grand and then fall down and die. This doesn't happen all the time and I also only drive the car every other weekend because I keep it at home, safe in the garage when I'm at school.
Could it be a Throttle Position Sensor that is causing the erratic idle and the tranny slipage?
Thanks in advance
