    I'm having problems with my transmission, it won't shift out of first! It's a 700r4. The fluid looks goo and at the proper level, still nothing. A couple of ays ago it would shift if i put it into '2' and then put into drive, but now it won't shift at all. Any ideas?

    TV cable controls everything on those ******s. Without it will destroy the clutches inside. Check the shifter adjustment also.

    got it. TV cable needs adjusting and im missing the bushing/washer that keeps the spring up against the shift linkage on the transs
     
  6. If you drove it with a mal-adjusted TV cable, it only takes a few blocks of driving to kill it.

    I hope that is not the case for you.
