I'm a bit of a gear head but tend to stay away from transmissions. My transmission was rebuilt 2 years ago with a shift kit. Now it's having problems shifting into any gear without reving the **** out of my engine and it won't go into overdrive at all. I've messed with the throttle adjustment and there is no difference in the way it shifts. It's a 92 Camaro TBI any idea's?

 

throttle valve inside the transmission is stuck. that what mine did.

 

My 91 RS acted the same way when the little clip at the throttle end of the TV cable broke.

I never got over 3rd gear so I don't know if it would have shifted to 4th or not - but the engine had to reach the yellow line in 1 & 2 before it would shift and stayed like that until the broken TV cable was replaced.

Could be the cable, ( broken inside the sheath or inside the tranny ) or it could be the valve.

 

Hi all. Let me start by saying that I am new to this site and to the third gen camaro. I have a '92 RS w/ 305 TBI and TH 700 R4. The transmission works fine under normal driving conditions but under WOT it will not shift untill the tach has run off the numbers ( Im guessing about 7800 rpm). can anyone help? I have purchased a new governor but not yet installed it.

 

If that happened you wouldnt have a motor left. I'm guessing your tach is fubar.

 

That is among the possiblities I have been looking at. The tach tells me Im at around 3100 rpm at 60 mph. This seems high comppaird to other OD cars I own.

 

Did you get a new clip or a whole new cable
What is the clip called i really need one
