1989 Ford Mustang Malfunction - Drive Train & Driveline


Question: My problem is with the transmission. It will go into reverse fine. It was going into drive slowly 10-15 second hesitation now it will not go into drive at all. I have changed the fluid and filter but it has not helped. This did not start untill I had new exhaust put on (4weeks ago). Can not see any connection unless they knocked some connection to transmission loose. I believe its the A4LD the mustang is an 89 with at 2.3 any suggestions would be appreciated. Oh when it does go into drive, last time was several days ago and had to wait almost 3 minutes. It drives fine. upshifts and downshifts normally. That is the confusing part to me. Thanks for any help

Technican: I don't see any connection with the new exhaust. It sounds like a valve body problem. I will check bulletins and post back later.
Owner: it has been over a week and i have not heard back on this issue. please advise.
Technican: Sorry, I failed to ask if the transmission is losing any fluid?
Owner: it is not losing any fluid that I have been able to tell.
Technican: You will likely need to have line pressures checked. I have looked through bulletins but none seem to apply to your problem. I can send you a link to these bulletins if you wish to look for yourself.
