Re: linear solenoid cleaning 97 civic lx
Hopefully its not to late for a response. You are right it is definitely the Linear solenoid (I had the same problem). To clean it:
1.Remove 4 bolts holding solenoid to tranny (watch out tran fluid will come out)
2. Unplug it
3. clean with warm soapy water
4. If severely gummed up soak in a solvent like mineral spirits
5. Do this till all the goop is out of the solenoid.
6. Let dry COMPLETELY before putting it back on
7. Re-install solenoid (Bolts and plug)
