mota z Posted August 20, 2010 Share #1 Posted August 20, 2010 hello I have a 76 280z with auto transmission and recently I been having problems going reverse as well as going forwarded. OK recently i just did a full tune up on the car everything was working fine till this morning. I started my car and the idle is good, when i was backing up i notice that when i step on the gas it would just rev and i wont go any where. So I put it on drive and the same thing happen. I have been feeling the lack of power when i drive it and first thing that came to my mind was maybe my cat went bad? what do you guys think? thanks in advancechris: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d240zx2 Posted August 20, 2010 Share #2 Posted August 20, 2010 Check your auto-transmission fluid level. Sounds like either you're very low on fluid or your tranny's taken a big crap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walter Moore Posted August 21, 2010 Share #5 Posted August 21, 2010 Sounds like you have either lost the torque converter, or some clutches? Either way you will probably need to have it rebuilt. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
