Are the clutches adjustable on a 95 ATX? or should I just have it repaired?
Thanks
Trent

The clutches in an automatic transmission are internal
and can't be accessed without taking the trans apart.
I'm not sure what you mean by having it adjusted. What
are your presenting issue(s)?

Or in non-therapy/medical terminology, what problem(s)
are you having? =)

The first thing I look at in any ATX is fluid. Unless you know it has
mechanical problems I would always try that first. Have it flushed, not
just drained, and get the filter changed. I have seen all manner of trans
problems solved by this simple fix. Mention to the mechanic that is doing
the flush what the car is doing and ask him to let you know what the fluid
looks like.

I suspect that it's rebuild time. However, have you
checked the fluid level?
