Sounds like the torque converter is staying locked up when it should be unlocking as soon as you touch the brake. I had this problem with an 88 Beretta. It could be a sticky solenoid valve in the transmission, or the torque converter is bad. A transmission shop could better diagnose this by seeing the vehicle.
what can make car sometimes have trouble starting then sometimes start right up and then sometimes drive good down the road and sometimes cut out please help
inspect trans filter. had similar symptoms on my '95
where is the over drive solenoid located on a 1989 Chevy Corsica
The transmission
drive shaft could be out of balance or tires could be out of round
yes
it will drive but when in reverse it wont move
A car that won't move when in reverse could indicate a problem with the transmission. It could also indicate a problem in the gear selector.
possibly a vacuum leak
The Chevrolet Corsica which was named after Corsica, France, is a front-wheel drive compact car. The car that was produced by General Motors from the years 1987 to 1996.
Your 90 Ford Tempo may die when you put it in drive or reverse because the fuel filter is clogged. The transmission could also be malfunctioning.
If it is a front wheel drive vehicle it could be a bad CV joint. In a rear wheel drive car it could be a bad universal joint.
