He just installed a brand new converter on it today and it still isn't running right. Here is the issue: <br />Start the car cold runs fun shifts fine for about 2-3 minutes, then it acts like its in neutral and just revs up but doesn't go anywhere. He coasts to a stop and turns off the car and then just starts it again and everthing is fine again for a few blocks and then the same thing. All gears work, I don't know much about auto's but it seems wierd. Also the vauccum for the tranny is hooked to the intake manifold, he thought maybe vaccum could be a problem?! What could be causeing this???
