Question About Slippage
Please See Sig For Car Detail.
I had a Fuddle 3800 converter with a 2.3 str installed about 2 months ago. Everything has been fine and not sure my current problem is related.
I was driving on the freeway coming home tonight and was in OD and put the gas to the floor. The car was slipping big time. I never noticed that before. The car seems fine out of the hole and from the a second gear hard launch. I will have to try it from a 3rd gear launch later tonight and see what happens. I did notice that after I did the OD routine a few times on the freeway then came to a stop I could smell some burning. I am not sure it was my car since when I stopped the car and got out about 5 mins later I didn't smell anything.
So, any idea on what this could be? Any way to easily check this type of thing out?
The car only has 22,000 miles on it so it is not a high miles. Also, the car has not been to beat up.
Is it odd for a car to only slip from an OD launch?
Thanks in advance for your help!
