My '98 Neon has the common problem with the kick down lever seizing up. I got another valvebody from Bucar (Aries_Turbo) from an older A413. My VB and the older VB have the same casting numbers the only difference (i can see) is mine has the lock-up converter solenoid mounted to the side, and It is minus a spring on one of the plungers/valves. I swapped everything over (also did the "shift kit mod" with the rod replacing a spring and removal of the steel ball). Now everything seemed to work ok. I had a hard time plugging in the solenoid when it was all together. I thought I got it, but I am not 100% positive. The car went into park, Reverse, Drive, Neutral, and 1st gear ok. But does not shift on it's own. It seems to stay in 1st gear. Does anyone know IF it could only be the lockup solenoid, or this other (older) VB just doesn't work with the newer Neon.. This could mean the difference between me fixing it in my driveway, of driving it back to my dads (in 1st gear) and spending another bunch of hours changing the vb again.. lol
