OK. It's been a few days, but I've gotten the speedo corrected after snail mail delivered the on-line order. I also talked to "Dana" today. He...
Thanks. It looks like I can get stock gears to fix it based on 5speed.com calculator. I'll be at the local trani store Monday to pick-up a...
thanks 1320 Fan. Maybe some of my concern is not warranted?!?! Could be. But I still have a couple of lose ends to take care of. Today, I will...
thanks for the info. how would You describe "no overrun braking, manual 3-2-1"?
not to mention the two times I've replaced fluid in the 20 miles while checking the TV.
I've been very careful. I'm sure I don't have 20 mi on the rebuild. Very very little hwy, unless doing the on-off ramp to get to speed for test...
One more morsel of information, the trani does not downshift at any speed or gear when accelerating. I have attributed this to the low shift...
I have an edelbrock carb with the Lokar cable. I removed the TV cable at the carb when the pan was off. I opened the throttle to wide open, and...
a resent question about the TV cable. I'm using a Lokar cable. I've taken the pan off to confirm the full range of motion between the throttle...
OK.. had some MiL "opportunities" that side tracked me, but got back to it this evening. I got the relay (brake signal) connected (yellow wire...
Thanks justpassinthru. At 70, I completely left off the gas, the engine immediately goes to idle. I press the gas, the engine revs up to catch...
I have printed your schematic. I will spend some time looking at it this evening. I'm on the steep side of the learning curve on this subject....
This afternoon, I am going to install a relay from the brake switch so I can get the normally closed circuit for the lock-up control. I'll use...
The rear end gear is 3.91
Bill, you think when its in overdrive, I should be able to accelerate, but when I release the accelerator, the engine should reduce to an idle at...
attached is the schematic. I'm currently suspecting the connection to the brake light switch?? I have a pressure switch in the brake system....
I am using the B&M 70244 Lock-up controller. I was reviewing the schematic. I do not have a brake switch at the pedal. I have a pressure switch...
this is correct. only in 4th.
I just installed a (shop) rebuilt 700r4. I used a 2000 stall convertor with a lock-up. The trani works fine when in 1-2-3, but when I put it in...
Finally got the sedan back on the road. Bottom Line.... I had a bad master cylinder. The suggestion to gravity bleed the system left me...
yes, this type
the booster and mc were purchased as an assembly. The mc has the shallow hole. thanks for the thought though.
I like it!!! Sounds like the sure way to get it done!
I need to confirm this. Thanks so much for the help. I need the ideas. When I attached the pedal to the threaded shaft coming from the power...
the proportioning valve is an aftermarket SSBC I got from Summit Racing.
thanks for that confirmation!! I really appreciate any help!!
How would I be able to confirm the mc bottoms out? Also, I've seen a couple youtube videos where they are saying to put a 2x4 under the pedal...
Thanks for the reply. I think I've covered your questions in the thread as I'm getting caught up.
I'm going to try this. In my reply to V8 bob, I mention the amount of fluid coming from the tube when I bench bleed. Do you have any experience...
Yep. All the valves are closed when the pedal is pushed. When the pedal is down....I will then release and re-tighten the valve. Then my wife...
