Hi,  our '89 weekender is sick with transmission blues.  It will engage
but it will not go without reving the engine very high .  I need to drive it
on to a trailer and im affraid that it will not have the power to get up the
ramps.  BUt lets say we get past that hurdle ,  When i drop the engine to do
the head im going to drop the tranny and see if i can resurrect it .  It
looks to me that my tranny is contaminated with coolant fron the atf cooler.
  Im going to have to clean out my torque converter from what i hear , No
mention in Bentley on how to do this any gurus out there with words for a
guy at the end of his agonizing vanagonitis illness.  im so out of nwe ideas
that im begging for some direction !!     HELP      Raul
