Have a 93 Ranger with 3.0L, 150K miles, RWD with an automatic transmission. I am experiencing a slow undetectable transmission leak that will effect changing gears every couple weeks or longer. When this happens I can back out of my driveway, but when I change to overdrive it is slow and takes a short bit then jerks into gear. I keep an eye on the transmission fluid and top it off when it needs to be refilled. I recently read online about a vacuum modulator on the transmission that can cause these symptoms (erratic shifting, hesitating going into gear and losing transmission fluid without a trace of a leak) if its faulty. Has anyone experienced this before or think this may be what is happening or think there is something else wrong?
