I have a 400 turbo tranmission it has never slipped never given me any problems but now I have to shift it in and out of reverse to get the tranmission to go into gear if you go strait to drive it is like there is no tranmission but if I shift it back and forth from park to reverse it will take off after a bit and works great shifts fine in all gears what could be the problem? Or is my tranmission junk
