I have a 79 malibu with a crate 350 and a TH350. It will go in reverse, but not any forward gear..??... The fluid is full with the engine idling and HOT, but it will not even try to engage 1,2, or D...? Vacuum modulator line is hooked to passenger's side of manifold vacuum on Carter 625 AFB carb. Manifold vacuum port on intake is blocked off.. Should I find a fitting and hook the modulator to the direct manifold vacuum port? Or is that even my problem? I haven't tried applying the brakes and revving the engine in 1,2 or D to see if it is a torque converter issue yet, wanted to check with you guys first. This site has been very helpful so far, and I am having a blast with my 16yr old son learning about the innards of cars... We finally got it started, now it just needs to move forward!! Any ideas you have would be appreciated!!
Thanks in advance for the help!
