I recently put on a new modulator because my transmission flui was leaking. And days after i put that on i started to notice that i had to start pressing down more on my gas pedal, and that my car just isn't getting the acceleration that it used to. i'm just wondering if anybody has an idea about what it might be?? i would greatly appreciate it because this is my baby just want it to be running like it should. thank you.

A vacuum test could reveal this for you. If not sure about that I'll try to make a searchable post on vacuum testing as a diagnostics. It may be old way but so am I! __________________ I owned that car back when with the Ghia package and 302V8 which still had marginal power but the world was trying hard to make cars that were more fuel efficient, pollute less, cost less (ha!) and have plenty of room!

I believe the modulator has a vacuum port on it. Make sure the line is not cracked causing a vacuum leak.
