Hmm...adjusted my TV cable
Hmm...adjusted my TV cable
I pushed the button in and pushed the stopper all the way in towards the firewall.
I released the button and opened the throttle all the way.
That's the way I read to do it, but although my 2-3 shift is firmer, my 1-2 shift seems HARDER (not firmer) and it stays in 2nd forever it seems.
Did I do it wrong or should I have kept the button pushed in while opening the throttle? Everything I read on here didn't say anything about that.

Did some WOT checks....it won't shift out of 2nd at WOT now. I let off at 6k
I pulled it out a lil bit (the TV cable) and it's STILL not shifting out of 2nd at 6K (I let off)
Before I set it, it was shifting fine. The 1-2 still at all the settings shifts right at redline.

Ovrclck350, how are your 1-2 WOT shifts? 86Firebird, it is behind the throttlebody on the drivers side. It's a little D shaped metal button.

BTW, maybe my TV cable is aftermarket? My button is not D shaped, it's a square.
