So today I've found out that running a 20+ year old transmission thru water is not a good decision. The shop told me that there's water I the trans (duh) and that its more than likely shot. He quoted me $300 to clean and flush it twice on a crapshoot that it may not even work after.
Looking for opinions and options on what's the best and most cost effective way to proceed.
1. Find a donor XJ AW4 and install... hoping there's nothing wrong with it. Difficult? Expensive?
2. Try and find a replacement TF999 and install... hoping there's nothing wrong with it.
3. Find a shop/person to rebuild existing TF999. Expensive unless I find someone who can show me how and help me DIY.
4. ???????
