sounds like someone swapped the tranny out for a 1994 tranny? thats what they do. they wont shift. unless WOT and its only from pressures and not the computer telling it to do so. see if you can get to the plastic tag. the 2 letter code tells you the year and month.

With a 94 trans drive would be reverse and reverse would be drive. That's what happened when I tried it

hmmm i will check the tag in a couple mins , but i mean it pulls good in reverse shifts perfect in 1,2 and wont shift manually into drive or overdrive will shift only somtimes mashing it and letting off , so Irockid your saying that i should move the shift linkage ? just confused!! could i still be low on fluid? i mean i pulled the pan and refilled with 5 quarts but it was real low when i got the car the other day so coukld it just need more ?

ok so i put 2 more quarts in and just took this thing out on the high way went wot through all gears hesitated to shift into overdrive but slammed through 123 no problem but i did i reached about 120 real quick unsure if the vss isnt correct or what also when i came to a complete stop at the end of the highway fucking car just died . checked the alt no voltage seems to be gone , now would a bad alt with either low or really high volts mess the tranny functions up , because the shift solinoids are controlled by voltage?
