Okay,
Got my heep back from the tranny shop, turns out I blew up everything hydraulic inside as well as the clutches and torque converter.. fun fun. They found the what they think the reason is.. a rusted vacuum modulator which was stuck open, and since I have low vacuum (17") it forced the trans into "safe" mode which ended up raising the fluid pressure and blew every seal and all that shit inside.
Now I get it back today, I have no balls, no acceleration, but smooth shifting, I call and ask and they say its from the adjustable modulator, they have it adjusted to soft shift because of the low vacuum, but then they go back on that and say they can adjust it a little tighter so I can have a little more acceleration.. which is it? Can't or Can.
Gets better, they say they didn't pull the engine but now all of a sudden my jeep has 40 ground issues it didn't before, my headlights don't work (which sucks balls since I do a lot of night driving.. thank god for accessory lighting) and now I have no reverse lights. My engine has a miss (well no shit it has the stock 1976 ignition module and distributor) and they don't know where the vacuum leak is.. well I have 4 vacuum lines, one to the Break booster, one to the tranny, one to the Q-Track, and one to the vacuum advance. No others, and non of them are leaking so where is my low vacuum coming from, they are talking leak down testing and compression tests.. shit I knew I should have just gotten a junk yard TH400 and run it.
