the other day while driving my transmission started to shift a lil different. from first to second takes longer then it used to and now it doesnt shift out till 25. just wondering what this is cause i dont like it. also having a dip in idle only when cold, after its warm it doesnt dip.

 

could be a trans. press. issue, but I would try resetting the computer 1st then start looking at tranny fluid and press.

 

well i checked the fluid and its good so thats ruled out ill try a reset here in a lil bit and see if that gets it or not.

 

well reset the computer and nothing. its still not shifting out of first until about 22 or 23 MPH and it just sounds like its getting to high before it finally shifts up and its a hard shift.

 

bump

 

ThaT 89 is not computer controlled at all...you can adjust it at the throttle cable...make the rod "shorter" for it to shift sooner

 

are you talking about the secondary cable on the trottle body argon? the lower one that goes down to the tranny?

 

the one that goes to the trany..The "TV" cable,as its called..

you mash in a flat button on it,and adjust the slider,....make it shorter to shift quicker

 

alright im going to try this and hopefully see some improvement

 

ok, so no improvement. and today i went to work and i noticed now that its taking even longer to shift out. so its revving high and wont shift till about 30-35 now, my only guess is its something inside the tranny?
