Default Re: Engine or transmission trouble?

Anyone have any thoughts? Needs a transmission filter and fluid change? (I have the right stuff on order.) OR could this be a fuel pump failure or other engine-related problem?

EDIT: One other factor; mechanic believes intercooler pump is failing. i plan to install a Johnson pump.
Your problem is the IC pump, the current thinking is to use the Bosch pump and not the Johnson as they seem to fail to quickly.
The new Bosch pump ends with the numbers 010, do not replace with a Bosch pump with the same number as is in the car now, they fail too soon.
Click for part and supplier, you can also go to NeedsWings for the same part.
