A vehicle with an automatic gear box cannot be towed without severe damage to the gear box, because there is no oil flow in the gear box unless the engine is driving it.
Look for a replacement gearbox.
The starter motor is always attached to the gear box at the end wear it connects to the Engine, depending on you care transmit ion system, if it's manual it's on the clutch end sometimes on older cars called the bell end due to it's shape , the Automatic gear box is the same but contains a fluid torque converter, the starter motor locates into the large ring gear that sit around the outer edge of the clutch flywheel assembly on both types of gear box's, hope this is of some help to you.
Turn each of the four (two if not a double pumper, on some) screws in just till they stop (not tight). Turn each out about one and a half turns. Attach a vacuum gauge to any available port that carries full vacuum (in base of carb or on manifold). Attach a tach to the ignition system (hand held, attaches to negative side of coil or slot marked "tach" on dist cap). start the engine and turn throttle linkage adjustment to the lowest rpm the engine will run at. adjust either of the front screws out so therpm and vacuum increases. As soon as it moves, do the same at each of the other screws. Repeat this till you have reached the highest rpm and vacuum reading. If rpm exceeds 800 while doing this, lower it at the throttle linkage. If any screw stops responding, don't adjust it any further. (happens on old carbs sometimes). Usually after you reach the highest point, it's best to turn all the screws back in around a quarter turn. Adjust the linkage so the rpm is at the factory setting for the engine you have or, if modified, generally best is between 800 and 900 at idle in gear (if automatic). If it's on a Chevy engine, timing should be at 32 degrees total advance, base timing at around 12 degrees. Adjustments cannot be made if there are any vacuum leaks or if fuel bowl floats are not properly set. Highest idle rpm and highest vacuum reading does not always happen at the same time. You are looking for the highest vacuum reading with the idle being smooth. Holley carbs have many adjustments. Accelerator pump stroke and curve, squirter size and jet size determine how well the carb is "fine tuned" to your usage. On 85 and up automatics, transmission control cable MUST be correctly adjusted or you can quickly kill the transmission.
There is a bracket on the rear of the steering column in side the cab. The shifter cable attaches to this and the bolts loosen up and sometimes fall out. There should be two #30 torx screws holding this bracket to shift shaft.
Let me put your mind at ease, Your transmission is fine. The events that you describe happen to everyone and transmissions are designed to handle it. Joe
automatics can be changed to manual but its not that easy. Not only do you have to change the gear box you have to change all related parts (ie: driveshaft, flywheel, ujoints etc.) you then have to hang a clutch petal mount a slave cylinder. Might want to rethink this project.
It must be having automatic gears. It seems as if the gear teeth have got jammed up and the sensor automatically switched off the engine to prevent further damage. Also check quantity of the gear box. Anyway only a proper mechanic will be able to release the tangle, if any, but my sixth sense seems as if the parking sensor has malfunctioned therefore not releasing the safety feature of driving and thus not responding to the remote starter..........sodeep
even i had the same problem but try to take off ur AT oil and take off the filter of the AT gear box for this u can screw off the nuts of the sump of the AT gear box and then take the filter off and replace it by another then before replacing the filter keep the gear box to draw off all the oil which was there and then eplace it and put new gear oil
run the engine for a while about 4-5 days and again put on to a dignoser and reset the gear box settings
i think this will work
