frustrated TV cable/ switching to Dish!

Ok...I asked about my 91 shifting very fast...1-3 crossing the street...so someone pointed me to the tv...i read all/tons of tv adjustment threads...untill i got it...went out and tryed it...went for a test drive...1 to second is late 4k at 1\4 throttle...so now i'm reading more and the tv topic goes on for ever...but i can't find anything that tells me which way and how to soften it a bit?....when the D thing is released is the cable suposed to move/slide inn and out...could my d thing be stuck inn?...not locking cable in place..or??

Re: frustrated TV cable/ switching to Dish!

Re: frustrated TV cable/ switching to Dish!

Hahahaha funny title for the thread. Adjusting the tv cable is really simple, and yet so many people don't have theirs adjusted properly. I had problems with mine, and it took me forever to get things adjusted correctly. All it took was a complete, accurate set of instructions and that was it.

Cheers!!
