Have you checked the TV cable and readjusted it?

Re: tranny wont shift

a tranny shop said it was the throttle valve sticking.is there any way to get to this to maybe lube it or something or is this right in the tranny?

Re: tranny wont shift

If all the trans has is 1st and reverse pull the governor and check it. When the gear goes (it's plastic) the trans usually won't up shift.

If you feel the TV valve is stuck. With the engine off grab the TV cable at the TB. Give it a bunch of quick yanks and releases. This will often free up the TV valve.
