700r4 wants to reverse when in park
i set the shifter linkage with the trans and shifter in neutral, but when i rev the motor in park the car backs up. since the brakes aren't finished yet this can be a bit scary. i adjusted the tv cable once but have since readjusted the shifter linkage to try and solve the problem. i feel like i'm doing something out of order. any ideas?

TV cable has nothing to do with it - it's with the shifter cable - maybe it needs more adjustment, maybe it's the wrong cable. Where did you get it at?
I went through 3 shifter cables - the ONLY place I could find that didn't sell the same old crap made in India was the dealer - more expensive, but it's the only one I found that works.
