1997 Tercel,1300cc,auto. Intermittent drive fault when motor hot or cold.Motor revs ok,car just sits there and barely moves forward or back.Similar to "limp" mode or a badly slipping clutch on a manual. Placing car in 1,2,D or R makes no difference and there is no bump/jerk when selecting a gear.Fluid is clean,no nasty smell and full. Drive down the road,engine revving but slow pick up,and it may suddenly sort itself out or if you leave it and return and it`s perfect for a week or two.Your thoughts would be appreciated.TIA.
