just cleaned my IAC valve, my idle went down significantly
then went and took my buddy out around the block so he could feel out this weird problem I'm having... here's the know and wonder..
know: I need trans fluid pretty bad, checked it and it seems I barely have any.
wonder: what would having low trans fluid cause exactly??
this is my concern: when im turning sometimes, my jeep will kind of catch itself and pop to pickup what i believe is the gear. When I go to brake, it'll sound as if the engine is still on the gas but I am stopped. when I let off the brake I will actually roll backwards a bit, instead of crawling forward. Then I hit the gas it'll sound like its in neutral and revving, but then catch itself and "pop" into gear. What could be the cause of this??
I checked with a butane torch for a vacuum leak and everything seemed to check out. So that seems gravy but I know it could be the brake booster.
My front diff vent hose has a gash in it, could this be causing the problem??
I also noticed that what i believe to be my trans pan has a dent in it where something is leaking. I'll post pictures tomorrow but any insight will help. If you dont wanna answer here I posted a tech thread and will add the link in a minute.
