Wont shift to 2nd
Got the car and it had a shift kit in it already. B&M i think. Said hes had it in there for a month or so. I got it and it shifted pretty good, no problems. It then seemed like it took longer and longer to shift and then finally it stopped shifting to 2nd. Reverse and all over gears work, but it wont go from 1st to 2nd. Any ideas what the problem is?

If it won't shift to second even under part throttle I'd check the
fluid level first, then the governor. The fluid level must be "full when hot"
