Well, it can't have one of each, but it can have one that combines their features. I know I have seen a car advertised in last few years that you can run through the gears if you want or just let it operate automatically, but Plymouth offered an auto-shift transmission back in the late 1930s/early 1940s. If you left it in high gear, it would shift back to low when the vehicle stopped and you could up-shift without using the clutch (but not down-shift).
What else can I help you with?
What is the least expensive way to have a transmission replaced or rebuilt?
Automatic or Manual ? Automatic- the least expensive method is to approach a local school with an Automotive program specializing in Automatic Transmissions , that is if time is not an issue - it may take several weeks or months - next cheapest method is a reputable Automatic Transmission rebuilder, have them install a rebuilt into your vehicle. I have had some junkyards (good ones ) do some good and reasonable work on automatics too. Ask around friends relatives etc Manual Trans - same basic answer - if time is not an issue try a good used transmission installed at a junk yard - Rebuilt manual transmissions can be very expensive depending on the vehicle (ie 4 wheel drive) Good luck
Can changing an automatic transmission to manual change performance?
There is a lot to consider when swapping transmissions as far as performance is concerned. However changing from an automatic transmission to a manual transmission will typically improve the efficiency of your drive train. You lose power with a torque converter, because it's constantly "slipping" in order to drive the transmission's input shaft. General rule of thumb for older makes is that with an automatic you'll have lost about 20% of your engines output by the time it reaches the pavement, and with a manual you will only loose about 10%. NOTE: Newer automatic transmissions have been built to be much more efficient than I am reflecting here.
Why do most people who own exotic cars drive them like they are slow?
They have manual automatic transmissions that have "flappy pedal shifters" that usually take a little more time to get the shifting right when you're in the city & have 7 gears.
What is the igniton timing 1977 360 Dodge D100?
Timing on this truck is at top dead center for both manual and automatic transmissions. If it is an original California truck with all the smog devises time it at 4 degrees before top dead center.
How do you rebuild your own transmission?
Get a manual first. Automatic transmissions are complicated and have lots of small parts; rebuilding one requires a lot of time even for experienced mechanics. But if you've got the time, the tools, the manual and maybe a gearhead pal, there's no better way to learn than do-it-yourself. Keep track of the parts. Help can be found at cartalk.com

What type of automatic transmission fluid does a 1989 Volvo 240 use?
What type of transmission fluid do I need? What type of fluid your transmission requires depends entirely on what type of transmission you have. Over the years, Volvo has used many different transmissions in the 240 and 260 models. Manual transmissions models: M41, M45, M46, M47/M47-II, M51. Automatic models: BW35, BW55/AW55, AW70/AW70. 1975 model year 240s with the B20F engine got the M41 (four speed manual + electric pushbutton overdrive) or BW35 (three speed automatic) transmissions as carryovers from the 140 cars. 1976-1993 models got either the M45 (four speed manual), M46 (four speed manual with a push button overdrive unit), M47 (five speed manual), BW55/AW55 (three speed automatic), or AW70/AW71 (four speed automatic). Early 260s were available with a true five speed Getrag manual transmission (M51), later ones got the M46 (four speed + overdrive manual) or the BW55/AW55 (three speed auto). Most, if not all, US and Canada spec 240s were not available with the M45 transmission. Now that you've identified which transmission you have, you can determine what type of fluid you need. For all M46 transmissions, Type F or Type G Automatic Transmission Fluid is the easiest choice. Synthetic fluid (like Redline MTL) has been used with success, 10w30 motor oil can be used (but will afford less protection). Dexron fluid SHOULD NOT BE USED (one, two). Christ Herbst wrote an intersting summary explaining how various acceptable fluids (Type F ATF, RedLine MTL, Synthetic Motor Oil) work with an M46 transmission. For all BW35, BW55, or AW55 transmissions you should use Type F Automatic Transmission Fluid. Period. If you can find a synthetic Automatic Transmission Fluid that's compatible or designed to meet Type F (or Type G) specs go for it. For AW70/AW71 transmissions you'll either need Type F or Dexron (note that the two are not compatible, should not be mixed, and putting one in a transmission designed for the other will result in problems). For 1982 and 1983 model year AW70 or AW71 transmissions you'll want Type F fluid. For 1984-1993 AW70 or AW71 transmissions, you'll want Dexron / Dexron II / Dexron III / Dexron IV Automatic Transmission Fluid. Overdrive. Over time, it takes longer and longer for your manual transmission to engage that push button 5th gear. Or maybe you have an automatic transmission and you were driving down the highway, and suddenly it shifts into third gear and refuses to shift into fourth. If you have an AW70, AW71, or AW72 automatic transmission, look here for some more advice.
What is an advantage of driving a manual transmission?
Each has it's advantages. In older cars, manual transmissions generally meant better gas mileage. In newer vehicles the mileage is pretty much the same (check out manufacturer websites and you'll see little if any difference). For some the advantage is the feel of control over the car's shifting. An advantage of an automatic is not having to shift gears all the time, it gets old real quick in heavy city or beach traffic.
