2nd Gen Non-Engine/Transmission 47rh shifting problems

[gcarthel]

I am having this problem on my 3500. This problem started when I figured out that the injection pump kill lever was not being opened all the way by the solenoid. When I fixed this problem I went from making 24-26 pounds of boost to making 40 to 45 pound of boost. Now all of the sudden my transmission will not shift until rpms get really high and it will down shift on its own way to soon. If I have the tc locked up manually with the mystery switch it will shift from 3rd to 2nd at about 56 mph, which really revs up the motor. I have been happy with the transbuddy kit that I installed and I really like to be able to lock up in any gear. I am wondering if the cause of this is a internal leak of somekind. Any input or solution would really be appreciated, as I have many loads of hay to move next week!!! Oo.

I think you need to readjust your TV cable. It may be too tight,with the key in the run position,have a helper press the throttle to the floor,and feel the tv cable,it should have approx 1/8" of free travel left at WOT,if it is tight before WOT adjust it so there's a 1/8" of play at WOT and try it again. My guess is the truck hasnt had full throttle in a long time,and someone adjusted the TV cable to the limit of the full throttle as it was then. Some cables you just press the side button ans adjust them,others you need to pull out of the bracket and remove a clip and slide them. Either way be careful the clips arent available separate,if you mess one up,you need to buy a cable to get the clip.

The cable on the '95 is a little confusing. There is a bracket just behind the throttle lever mess on the side of the injection pump where the TPS is located. The cable goes thru a black plastic cube in the bracket that has a bump on one side. The bump is NOT the button you push to adjust the cable. The flat place opposite the bump is the button. I think the bump contains the button spring. I use a small C-clamp to push and hold the button because it's hard to get my fingers in there with enough grip to press the button.
