94 LC when put into D it moves forward at 2000rpms same as reverse. I am going to drain the fluid and replace. I also adjusted the cable. I will keep posted if that helps.

What do you mean it moves forward, you mean it doesn't move until you rev it up to 2k ?

My tranny oil and not much came out. Half quart maybe. No wonder I am slipping. You never know how well previous owner took care of vehicle. Fml!

So was it reading low on the dipstick?
nasty
Wow. Is that water mixed with the trans fluid?

Yes it read really low. And I figured I get in there and do it. I also purchased Lucas tranny fix it cleaner. Then I will do another tranny change with my engine oil change(5000k) miles to go.
I think so. Or it might be coolant? Reason I say coolant is because my coolant looked like that because they mixed green with red. Any thoughts?

My radiator is in good condition, when I filled her up after flushing 5 times with water and filled her up with green and let her just run in idle until regular operating temps and nothing bad happened... But I am no expert.
Did you check if it was mixing coolant into the trans cooler passage?

I will check I think it is mixing. I might have to get a new radiator.
That would be my best guess.
I'd pull the lines and do a pressure test just to make sure.
Yeah, that's your best bet. Good luck with it mate.
Damn, looks like chocolate milk.
Agreed
Dex3 is all you need
That being said, since your trans looks to be severely contaminated, I'd consider doing a bucket flush.

Oh yeah I am sticking to that for sure! I am going to put 6 quarts in and drive it around the block. drive it in my drive way reverse and forward for a total time 20-30 minutes, drain it. pull the oil cover, clean it, replace the filter and refill.

Doing an oil flush with regular tranny oil then drain and refill. That should do it. Now have to wait for a radiator.
