And again I say, that no Automatic Transmission will work properly unless the Engine is in Tune. Just sorted another one for a friend by checking the Vacuum at the Inlet Manifold. Reading 14 , advance the Timing to max at idle 19 , retard 2 inches to 17 . Problem solved. But now the Engines Pings.... what petrol are you using... 92 with a compression Ratio of 8.5. You get what you pay for. Did he listen.. I don't know and i don't care.. his problem.
What was the Car ? It does not matter, as to whether it was a Cable or Vacuum Modulator controlled Transmission, a retarded spark or a bad Engine equals a confused Transmission. Late sloppy Shifts. Shifts soften my virtue of the Governor Valve reducing the Line Pressure as Road Speed increases. Shift quality is best at early Shift speeds before the Governor Valve gets to rule the Roost !
