I had a 93-945 with the AW-71L, was doing something alike, I flushed the fluid maybe 3 times and put Mobil-1 synthetic, also added a bottle of Lucas transmision fix and added an extra cooler in front of the car, cut the cooling lines that go to the radiator and bypassed it with rubber tranny fluid lines. I got the cooler from a GM suv in the junk yard, they all have it, Chrysler minivans they all have it too. They are also sold in the autoparts but 3 times more expensive.
My car started changing gears much better after that, no more complaints. I don't know if it was the Lucas oil or the cooler fluid since it was all done at the same time. I have used Lucas tranny oil in several very old transmisions and it always worked but a cooler in the front of the car is also very nice.
