I have a 1992 Bronco that I recently purchased. It ran so good, I felt I bought a great machine!! However, it was a little too good to be true.
I was driving it and all of a sudden it started shifting REALLY hard. It was SO hard that I literally thought the transmission was going to fall off the car. It did this for several miles and then it simply stopped doing it. It took about another 150 miles and it did it again. This time it threw a code (cannot recall what it was) but it pointed me to the TPS. I replaced it and still didn't work. After this, it happens MUCH more frequently and I cannot figure out what could be causing this. We replaced the TPS sensor and also the sensor located next to the transmission itself (can't remember its name), the fuel filter, and we flushed the transmission and replaced the fluid and filter. THE STRANGEST PART is that if you manually shift the car, there are no issues; it shifts smooth as silk. Has anyone heard of this every happening and how I could possibly fix it?? I hope I explained it well.
