The correct fluid to put in a 1997 van is (ATF-3). Sounds like you need to make adjustment on both the forward and reverse bands of the transmission to correct your problem. The kickdown band (front) forward is located at the top (outside) of the transaxle near the front. To adjust the band,loosen the lock nut approximately 5 turns. With the lock nut loose the adjusting screw should turn freely in case. Tighten the adjustment screw with an inch lb. torque wrench to 72 in-lbs. Then back the screw out 2 1/4 turns, hold the screw in place and tighten the lock nut to 35 ft-lbs. Then after removeing the transmission pan and filter the low-reverse band is located next to the valve body. Loosen the lock nut 5 turns so the adjustment screw is free. Turn the adjustment screw in to 41 in-lbs, then back the screw out 3 1/2 turns. Hold the adjustment screw and tighten the lock nut 10 ft-lbs. Install transmission pan/with gasket and refill transaxle to proper level. Test drive van. Be safe and block the rear wheels before you raise the van and try to work under it. Hope this will help you.

Those paper disc are from you 2nd gear band. You will need to replace the band. The front band is the 2nd gear band. The first thing I would try is to adjust the band. If there is still some material left on the band adjusting it will get you by for a while. The adjustment for the 2nd gear band is on the outside of the case. If you want me to post the adjustment procedure, let me know and i will.

The proper fluid for that Tranamiaaion is Mopar ATF Plus 3 Type 7176. I recommend using it as I have found it does make a difference.

LOW-REVERSE BAND:

1. Loosen, then back off lock-nut approximately five turns.
2. Tighten adjusting screw to 41 in.lb.
3. Back adjusting screw off 3½ turns, then tighten lock-nut to specifications

KICK DOWN BAND
The kick down band adjusting screw is located on the left side, top front of the trans-axle case.

2. Using tool No. C-3880-A and adapter tool No. C-3705 , or equivalents, tighten band adjusting screw to72 in.lb.
3. Back adjusting screw off 2¼ turns, then holding screw in position, tighten lock-nut to specifications.

Good luck and keep me posted, be glad to answer any other questions you may have.

If this is fuel injected with actual injectors you may find an adjustment on the throttle cable at the motor. If it has what appears to be a manifold mounted carborator there will be a throttle idle adjustment that you can adjust to increase idle.

Don't have specs on band but the rule is that it should be close enough to the drum to engage without slamming, and loose enough to permit drum to turn without band dragging on it. Biggest problem I've seen people have when adjusting is that adjustment tightens down while turning lock nut. To avoid this, I usually adjust a bit looser than final adjustment so it tightens to correct position instead of becoming too tight. Don't drive 'till you have it right or you will burn band surface. When engaged in reverse, band should be applied and cannot drag. If you adjusted another band, check that one for improper adjustment.
