2000 montero sport 4x4 i had a friend do an engine swap - all is running but AT will not
move the vehicle - dash lights indicate its shifting. AT Fluid seems slightly above the hi
mark. What do I do to determine the cause? What could be the cause? I know for a fact it

did they chip the flywheel when they put the engine in it will shift if the vacuum lines are right but if it is a rear wheel drive your propeller shaft might be broke is it FWD or RWD or AWD
