Another transmission question

Well the turbo went on the XT over the weekend and I had to start driving the SVX in the snow. What I'm wondering and I did look at some other postings first before asking.

When I punch the car on my snow covered gravel driveway the front wheels spins at first. If I get off the gas and then do it again it seems like it's AWD but I'm already moving to fast for the car to spin tires again.

Is my 92 supposed to be AWD all the time? If so is this another symptum of the trans going out? Really didnt want to drive it this winter but the XT gave me no choice.

The delay with engaging the rear tires means the AWD solenoid "C" is sticking.

You may want to look into getting that replaced along with your AWD clutch.

If you need those parts I had a guy in NY that parted out an SVX that has really reasonable prices ($40 for the rear diff and driveshaft) I offered the guys # to boxer but he didnt use it ... he should have a tranny and front diff available if he didnt ebay it yet

He's not a member here PM me and I can get you his contact info if you are interested
