My 47RE has lived up to its reputation

I paid $400 to have it towed 200 miles back to my house.

I did not want to leave it a some local shop and then later calling me
up saying it is ready,but they had to rebuild and that would be $4000


It started to not shift into overdrive after a stop at a light. I
pulled over and shut it down and started backup and it was working
fine till down shift then it would not go back up to overdrive again.
I pulled over again and tried going again. This time the trans would
not engage in any gear.


While Driving during this episode I noticed the trans temp was rather
low, < 140 degress which makes me think a lack of fluid flow.


Fluid is a bit high and it's nice and bright red.


I believe so-in-so had mentioned before with someone else that had a
similar problem that it could be a "sticking valve body or a mis-
behaving governor pressure sensor"
