transmission problems
Took a trip out to green ridge state forest (western maryland) this weekend to take some of the ORV trails out there - it was great fun, got some good pictures.
Anyway, when i got back home if i floored it the tranny would hang in first.. revving at 5000 rpm at anywhere from 30-45mph and not shifting - it would do the same when i got to the next gear. If i let off the throttle just a little it would shift ( a little past 3/4 of the way i guess). It did this a little when i first got it and took it into the shop.. i had a small leak, but that was all- they fixed it and tranny shifted good until now (well.. i still thought it was a little laggy, but it was better than when i bought it).
I let it cool down for a while (maybe the long drive and offroading in 4x4 i thought may have contributed) and then did some full throttle runs and it was better-but still not as good as it should be.
Anyone have any idea what it could be? I dont want to take this thing back into the shop again.
Thanks for any info
