Is there any way to manually shift this van?
Its not worth putting in another tranny (this is the second one),
but the engine is still strong (3.3l). I hate to sell it for parts.
I can get it to shift into 3rd if I turn it off and on after
it gets up to about 45 mph. (This gets old quick...

took the old
one out (the spring side was pointing into the engine), put the new one in
and started up. I had the top of the rad open to add more coolant, and

car alarm switching off ? by
///Owen\\\\\\
I come home, click the car alarm "on". Next morning the car alarm is "off".
My wife berates me. Am I only thinking I've alarmed the car, or can they
switch off?
Thanks
John

chirp a year or two ago.
