[QUOTE="Todd in KS, post: 1576987, member: 37408"] A bit of background - I inherited my 99GT in December. At that time it had 15.8K on the clock. I am sure my dad had not driven this car much at all for the last 10yrs (?) and very positive not "in anger". Drove it just a small amount in December, it was not shifting quite right but got better with some driving and throttle excursions. I drove it back from FL to KS in March. Drove fine but still not perfect. I now have 18K on it and the shifting is greatly improved but I am getting a "surging" especially at steady state cruise (70/75MPH). After looking through threads here I am wondering if my converter is going in and out of lock? How would I diagnose this and what could be done about it? Does it need anything as simple as a flush? I am a 3 pedal guy at heart. Thanks for any insight/suggestions. [/QUOTE]
