Hi Guys

I just rebuilt my 700R4 and put it back in the car. i was wondering which way do i move the TV cable? My first to second shift is way off. It over shifts and I am losing power. it is shifting at about 6000 RPM which is too high. My second to third shift is at 5300 RPM which is right on. Now when I set it I just set the cable at WOT as customary.

My question is: Which way do I start to move it to set it for the first to second shift to bring it down. do I go towards the firewall or do I go towards the front of the car?

Thanks in advance.

opinions even?

 

Try this.............To adjust the TV Cable skip the book method and do this: Press the 'D' shaped lock button on the adjuster and loosen the cable setting (The black housing that the metal cable is in will move forward). Now, have someone floor the gas pedal while you check to see if the throttle plate is open all the way. Usually they are off a little and will wiggle. Do whatever you have to do to get it open solid. Now, with the pedal still floored, press the 'D' button and pull the cable casing (the black tube) back as hard as you can (putting maximum tension on the metal cable) and release the button. You now have the engine, tranny and gas pedal all in sync at WOT. Mark the cable casing so if for some reason it gets moved you can know where to put it again. The problem with the 'self adjust method' is that it bends things and puts them permanently out of whack. It is also the full TV setting, which is theoretically what the GM method does.
