[QUOTE="JD3020, post: 186985, member: 373"] Got my some-what built trans this week, and spent the day installing it. We checked everything, checked it again, then checked our re-checks. Everything is hooked up correctly, nice and tight, and the way it should be. We put somewhere around 15 qts of fluid in, was gonna put all 18 in but didn't wanna risk overfilling it, and decided to fire it up. Cranked slow at first, but it hasn't ran in 2 months so i figured it would, and it fired up. Idled for a bit, then died and barely cranked. Threw the charger on it, and it fired up and idled fine from then on. Put in high idle, put the rest of the fluid in, and let it set for a while at 1100 RPM's. Decided to go ahead and try to move it. Put it in each gear for a couple seconds and never got any movement. Put in park and idled for a minute or two. This time it sorta moved in 1st, 2nd, and reverse, but not drive. Put it in 1st again and gave it some throttle. It slowly crept forward but acted like something was holding it back. Went about 30ft and stopped. Put it in reverse and it lurched back and died. Now it won't even attempt to crank, and the CEL just flips on for a split second when i turn the key. So, any ideas? I'm flat wore out and to pissed off right now to think straight, so i'm just trying to figure out some things to check in the morning. [/QUOTE]
