If you didn't actually test it with a meter, then it's impossible to speculate if it is working properly.

Either test it OR replace it.

Then you'll know.

well i just replaced it. seems to run a little smoother, but still the same issue stands with the transmission. im going to change the filter and fluid and see if that helps.
