Re: 700R4 problems
another likely cause is the band which could be warped or worn when it engages it clamps the input drum and sun shell allowing the rear planetary to rotate engaging the 3-4 clutches.

i talked to somebody about it today and they said it might be the cable that goes from the throttle to tranny. he said i have to push in and adjust it or something like that

Re: 700R4 problems
if it was the band,which clamps the reverse input drum, he wouldn't have 2nd gear or 4th.
