Ken:
 How long is your warranty good for? Does Jasper install the TransGo kit
when rebuilding the ATX? The VSS will leave a code. Check your codes first.
If clear then unhook the battery to reset everything. If the tranny still
does the same you might consider changing the VSS but it's a very painful
job with the tranny in the car. I have done it twice. It's also crucial that
the heat shield be reinstalled over the VSS because it's close to the
exhaust. I would first contact Jasper. It does not sound good to me!
