More C4 Auto problems/questions

[ronzara]

Ok, I got the problem fixed with the broken lever on the internal side of the kick-down rod. (found a replacement part). Put the Valve body back in and bolted the pan back up. I added Ford Type-F fluid, and I cranked the car up. let it idle and pulled the shifter (newly installed) from park to reverse. The car pulls forward ,... yes FORWARD. I shifted into Neutral then drive, car pulls FORWARD. I don't get it.
Then to top THAT off. I shut off the motor, and the trans filler tube begins to puke tranny fluid like Mt Saint Helens. The level was not over full. Any ideas wha the heck is going on here. HELP?!?!?!!?

Ron,

Now you know why I like the C-6. Not making fun, "I feel your pain". I'm not a tranny mechanic but... did you make sure all the debris was cleaned out of the valve body, I know you likely blew it out before reassembly but just checking. I had one of the Jeep dealerships fix my auto tranny and I had nothing but trouble and ATF puked out and it was not a pretty story, but when I took the Jeep to a speciality center and they found and removed just a few flakes of gasket or gasket sealer and my problem was fixed. Hey go figure. But for the difference in cost for the transmissions a C-6 (B&M Hydro) is only about $150 to $200 additional, I personally like it better.
