My brothers car.

When you hit the gas from a dead stop, the car very, very slowly begins to accelerate. There is NO quick accelerating with this thing. People honk at him because he leaves stoplights so slow. Its the tranny, it just doesn't grab.

Its been this way for a year now so my brother doesn't think its the tranny itself. What could be going on here?

 

well if its the tranny, its the torque converter in the tranny. go get some lucas tranny fix thing from autozone and put it in there and see if it helps, usually it always does if its not to far gone
