Default Re: transmission question

Get yourself a helper. Have him sit in the truck. Depress the adjuster tab on the cable housing. While it is depressed, pull the cable housing all the way back firmly and hold it. Have the helper press the gas pedal all the way to the floor, and hold it. Now, with the cable housing held all the way back, and the gas pedal on the floor, release the adjuster tab. Now, have your helper release the gas pedal. Then have him press the gas pedal to the floor while you check the cable. There should be NO slack in the cable between the bracket and the throttle linkage. None.

Now you have adjusted the cable correctly. Drive the truck. If the governor is for a gas engine, the truck has a 3.73 or higher gear, and the transmission is working correctly, it should shift to 2nd between 12 and 15 MPH at part throttle, into 3rd at around 24 to 30 MPH, and into 4th around 40 to 45 MPH.
