305 TPI/700R4 TV Cable Issues
I recently installed a new TV cable as my old one was very very loose, was having very bad non-shift issues into 3/4.
The new one I installed was 43" or 44" I believe, but it was too short. I thought it was the correct part #. Could I possibly have routed this wrong?
I got it to the bracket on the throttle body, but the cable end just doesn't reach. I do not know what to do, and need to fix this so that I can sell it.
ANY help is appreciated. Thanks guys!

It is adjustable, but it is still a few inches short. This whole transmission issue is just irking me at this point. I'm about to just sell the damn car.

That's a good point. OP What does your car have? TPI or TBI? Have you pulled the cable all the way out and it won't reach?

Edit: Remember that the detent cable goes under the runners, not over, It does not follow the same route as the throttle and cruise control cables...
