    '93 galant problem - suggestions

    Hi guys, I'm new to the forums and I have a question

    My '93 has 55k!

    Automatic Transmission.
    Just had the fluid changed.

    I notice around 2500 to 3000 rpm when I am gentle with gas the rpm's drop 300-400. Now the problem doesn't always happen, and it can happen going down a hill, up a hill, staight road etc. I have to punch it into passing gear to get the car to go faster sometimes. Anyone have an idea what problem this might be?

    I'm interested in finding a body kit that looks decent but I havn't found one I like yet.

    Only modifications I have are as follows :

    Magnaflow Muffler
    K&N air filter
    replaced stock plastic 500$ radiator with new all metal 180$ one

    any suggestions for some quick n easy upgrades?

    I'm going to take out that air filter resonator / silencer this afternoon.

    thanks.

    yeah. thats NOT a problem. thats the normal function of the torque converter clutch engaging.
    it does in under light cruise in second, third, and fourth gear when the trans is at operating temp.
