Have a feeling I need to overhaul the 727 I got out of basically a Mopar junkyard but want to see if I'm missing something first.
Before putting the trans into the car I put a cheetah Manual Automatic valve body and a deep pan. I adjusted the bands per the cheetah instructions and filled with new Amsoil Signature Series AFT and a bottle of Lucas stop leak (has a leak that appears to be coming from between the case and tailshaft). When I first took that car our it actually shifted pretty good. But around the 3rd or 4th time through the gears its started to slip when shifting 1-2 and 2-3. It doesn't have any delay going into R,D, or 1 only has issues when up shifting. It doesn't matter if I have it in D or go through the gears myself it slips every time, sometimes worse than others.
Fluid is between add and full when hot and in neutral. Is it maybe mis-adjusted bands, wrong fluid (its ATF+4), or just time for a rebuild? I don't have any history on the trans past it came out of a working car.
