Re: Need Help
Is the automatic shift controlled by the old cable system or is it a hydraulic system.
The cables on the old system could rot over time and cause this kind of problem.

Re: Need Help
Chilton makes a repair manual for all car models, you can also get a CD version. Search with google or get a used manual on E-bay.I recommend this if you are thinking of tackling any work on your own, there are pictures, instructions, do’s and don’ts it will make it easier to figure out if you are able to do the work or if you need to have it done by a garage.Cheers and good luck

try checking the vacuum hose that goes to the transmission modulator, probably broken or rotted, had this same problem with a 69 firebird, hose came unplugged.
