Well y'all on Saturday I got the FC running! After a cleaned out tank, new fuel pump am filter, she fired right up! Oh and a battery haha, now I got an issue where the car won't really move much with throttle input. It just free revs and will gradually pick up a little bit, plus no brakes so it's still go a little diagnosing needed

Well the engine runs and free revs great! Just like the trans slips like crazy, I'm wondering if the fluid is just all drained back down so much where it sat for so long

Well I finally got it to the condition that i could drive it out of the driveway tonight, but something screwy is goin on in that trans. I was sitting in the driveway in reverse and giving it throttle and it would hardly move, finally i floored it and it caught and spun in reverse (lol) and so i was like hey lets try to see how it shifts, well i wont shift outta first. so i bring it back and checked the fluid and it was barely touching the stick....think low fluid could cause that drastic of a problem?

Yep. Autos are notorious for acting up if the fluid is low. Don't drive it with low fluid. Drop some
in and see if it gets better.

You might want to get the filter kit and change the fluid. Beware, on old auto trannys this can
sometimes lead to death of the tranny. I would just top it up and see how it behaves.
