i derbyed my car last week. its a 1983 oldsmobile delta 88. the radiator blew so i just put another one in it. but just crimped off the tranny lines that ran to it. it has transmission fluid for the tranny. but now the car runs but will not go foward or in reverse. but just last week i drove it to where it sits now. any answers on what i could do would be greatly appreciated! thanks!

You can't just crimp them off,, you have to connect the lines or the tranny can not circulate fluid.

without having tranny fluid circulate is like having none at all, or having a block full of gas when it won't turn over
