88 irocz auto TH700R4
Hi Guys I have had a rebuild done on my TH700R4 the guy had a right battle with it if had been blown up by previous owner as the casings had been welded in places and a right mess in side so he changed casings etc .So I have if back seems to shift fine up and down driving it easy for a1000 miles but if I pull away a little sharp it changes up to second and back to first then back to second then up to 3 and forth as it should if I drive it softly it changes normal first to second third fourth is it just braking in or is the Tv cable out of adjustment It has done about 150 miles now.Thanks for any ones help .

Do adjust the TV cable to spec first, trying to read through your issues though, it seems something may not have been assembled correctly.
With only a 1000 miles on it, I'd head back to the rebuilders and have him take a ride in it.

Definitely sounds like the tv cable is a little loose. Needs proper adjustment right away. Can do damage driving with improper adjustment. You’d be surprised how a little adjustment can do wonders.

Thank you Tzych and Mike ,I took a look to day at the TV cable throttle body linkage end I pulled the TV cable just under a quarter of an inch to wards the front there was slack there what had happened the screw on the small adjuster at the end of the cable was loose wich caused the cable to slip so pulled up the slack and tighten the screw then I give it a drive and give it a bit of gas it changed up perfect 1st 2nd 3rd 4th no messing about.
So thanks again guys your advise was great.
