hello, we have just picked up our 1968 3500, the car has been sat for a long time and we have been checking over everything before taking it off to the MOT, now everything seems to be fine and running nicely the engine is smooth and quiet, but during our trip to the mot station we realized the car seems to be producing very little power drives adequately just doesn't seem to have any get up and go, especially attempting the hill really struggled until the kick down occurred but still wasn't quick.
now the problem is i have no knowledge of automatic transmissions but we have attempted to check the fluid levels, this has resulted in much head scratching as it looks like the fluid is very very high, but to be honest i don't know if we are even checking it properly.
can anyone help?
how do we check the fluid level properly?
if the fluid is extremely high could this be stopping the performance?
is it worth draining all the fluid out and replacing with new
why would anyone have overfilled the box in the first place?
any help would be greatly appreciated
