If you have never rebuilt one I wouldn't recommend learning now. By the time you are done with it the cost of a rebuilt will just about come flush. See if anyone here has one for sale.

I'd opt for a jumkyard replacement at that price, can you do the work yourself?

To me automatics are magic little boxes that I despise, I won't go near them lol.

That's right Matt, fear the little magic boxes.  Be very afraid.

god, I know where there is a 93 automatic sitting in a yard and the guy has called me about 6 times and has came down to around 350.00 delivered! My first 92 N/A, I bought with a bad 5 speed and it took 3 months to find one locally, (100 miles away in Seattle). Seems like  a life time ago.

Well pay attention with cars costing well into the 10's of thousands 2 grand to get ur pride and joy cherry again is a deal....if u divide the cost of the repair by the service the car has given u it might be about a dollar a week
