Greetings all,

My powerglide (1967 w/327 2bbl) transmission slips when I get on the gas hard (push the gas down hard and quick) at about 30 - 40 mph. If I let off and press the gas steadily all is well. Other than that one issue the transmission is great (for a powerglide.) The transmission / engine is original but she did sit up a few years between owners. Any thoughts or suggestions as to what the issue might be? No leaks, fluid does not smell burnt.

THNX

powerglides have an externally adjustable clutch band.

look up the procedures and try it.
