1990 Mustang GT convertible w/automatic trans. with overdrive. Has 120,000 miles. Recently the transmission stopped downshifting when I step on it. The overdrive slips so i have to drive in drive without the OD. When driving from a stop first gear has guts but when it shifts to second it slowly gets up to speed but before it had guts and power. Timeing was checked and matched factory spec. I have not had the trans. fluid changed and have owned the car since 1991. :?:

Maybe you need a new torque converter? If youve had the car since 1991 its probably worn by now.
