I think my issue was getting it primed. I replaced most fuel components except sending unit. Now troubleshooting reverse transmission issue. It will just barely move in reverse. But only sometimes. High revs won’t make it catch. No grinding at all. In forward gears it is long shifting but...

Just checking back in, this afternoon I got the ten-nine started with a gas rag with no added ATF. The fumes were enough to get me sputtering. I put some sea foam in the tank and ran it for an hour or so. I have a pretty steady transmission fluid leak. I was able to drive a little around the...
