A/T 4speed fails, car wont move until hot.

[zukitrek]

I know donor or salvage is another option but how opens great possibilities for hidden fails/abused tranny? What to change, what to inspect? I know it could be fun. And I can manage the time, I guess. I just came from an engine rebuild that took me 7 months. No help just me(Well a lot of usefull info like you do, helped me in the process). Old civic 87 with lots of problems. It started with a carb rebuild (took it to a shop) and then the engine (by me). See, the kick is my wifes car and is the only A/T equipped car in my house, the others are stick shift and wife does know stick shift, see my problem? Plus only one salary right now.

Is kind of an uphill situation. I'll study my options but first lets see the stall test results.

Thanks for your time.
