intermitent slow shift from 3to 4 & slow to start

I bought a 92 svx a few months ago and the guy said the transmission had been rebuilt 4,000 miles ago, it had 66.000 when I got it. It seems that sometimes it has a slow change from 3rd to 4th gear,...

Re: Slow starting

Well, Huck, I changed the temp. coolant sensor and that didn't seem to make a lot of difference,, the engine turns over fine, so it's not a battery or starter problem. It just takes several seconds...

Re: Slow starting

Thanks Huck, I will try that, it's annoying to not have it start quickly, I am planning on putting a remote start on this one and it won't work if the car doesn't start fast,, Thanks again. Vernon
