I have noticed a change as it shifts into 2nd it seems to be much sharper but doesnt happen often. The resinator that sits beside the battery looks brand new but was wondering if there is a way to test it. And I checked for the warning lights and on my way to work my AT oil light blinked 16 times but on my way home from work it didnt blink at all. tyvm for the info you provided, if you have any other words of wisdom to help me out its much appreciated. If the solenoid would happen to be bad is my car still driveable? Im suppoused to be driving out of town 600 mile round trip in a few days just wonderin if i should use a differnt vehicle.
