FZJ80 Transmission Trouble HELP!! PLEASE!!!
 
Hello. I have a 1995 FZJ80 automatic trans. I've had the car for about 5 years. About a month after I bought it I had my first tranny issue. Instead of shifting to 3rd from 2nd it went into neutral for about 20 seconds then dropped into gear. I instantly knew why the folks I bought it from sold it. So this would happen every so often. I put a new filter in the tranny, changed the oil, but still this happens and it seems to be getting worse at this point. I really like this car despite the gas milage it gets. I own it outright and it does everything I need it to. I'm going to fix it, but I'm not sure if I should have this tranny rebuilt or if I should just locate a working replacment. Any help would be greatly appriciated. Has anybody else out there had any issuse like this? Thanks in advance!:banger:

I'm not an a/t guy but I say fully overhaul or replace with rebuilt unit. Its almost 15 years old and prolly due (how many miles?). Get a cooler and temp guage put in and keep it running right and it will treat you good.
