The TV cable might need adjusted. Your 305 should run it's best in cold weather with 91 octane.

Did you tap the throttle to get it off high-idle? It sounds like it may have been idling a little high. No biggie.

yea i did actually, let it warm up a few minutes and revved it a few times, then put it in reverse and the tires squealed real quick. its never shifted smooth going from park to reverse or reverse to drive. gears shift fine while driving tho
