how the hell does he have a 4t40e in that thing? To my knowledge they only came in the 2.3 and 2.4L till 98 when they put them in everything. Gotta switch the transmissions over because the wiring for a 3 speed is different and so are the shift cables if i recall correctly. I would also do what 91 tercel said. While you've got the transmission seperated from the long block, replace the rear main seal and drop the oil pan to check everything out in there. Also, i forgot out priming the engine with oil when you get it in. I keep forgetting thats just 2nd nature to me when i start my cars up after storage.
