My 1991 ford explorer won't shift when cold. The transmission was rebuilt three years ago. Payed $1800 for the rebuild. Now I changed the transmission fluid and filter. It seemed to get a little bit better then the next morning when it was cold, it would not shift again. I then had the transmission power surged at a trans shop and it seemed okay that day but again I'm back where i started. Now it won't shift again when it's cold. If I manually shift it in the morning it will shift from first, second, to drive. Someone suggested to eliminate the radiator as for cooling and to put an larger external cooler on. Haven't tried that yet but it doesn't seem like its going to help anyway. It doesn't smell burnt and it only has 120,000 on the truck. Does anybody have any idea what's wrong with this P.O.S.?
