Hi, First I'd Check The Trans fluid ,Make Sure It's full.I Would ask You Next, Does the Engine Run Good, not misfiring Or surging?If It Does Run Good, Then I'd Have The Trans Checked At A Trans Shop.SomeTimes A Engine Problem Can Cause You To Think It's the Trans .Bad Ignition Plugs And Wires Can Cause This.Also A Vacumn leak. As for Cleaning The carb. I would wait on that.


Hope this Helps You,
Good luck
