Hello everyone, i have my 1988 xj on forged internals but due to the stock transmission im stuck on 5psi. But the other day i started facing some issues getting home when at a light it stoped walking I pulled over and maybe thought it was game over. But Oil is in great conditions no bad smell or nada. When I turned it back on it kicked again like new.


Quick summary it will walk through all gears but *** soon as i come to a stop it will stop moving, but if i turn the truck off and back on. It will start walking again and shift through all gears

What engine management? Installing a turbo shouldn't change any idle characteristics.

Are you controlling idle with it?

When you come to a stop, the vehicle will not move again? As in hit the gas, engine revs up, vehicle does not move? Or it will move but not shift gears.

Your use of "walking" is odd and confusing.

Trans fluid level and condition? TV cable adjustment?
