Im going back 50 plus years, but my 65 GTO had a manual shift kit. Had an issue once linkage needed a minor adjustment.
That’s your call bud. Kind of regretting not having you leave the key to your truck now. I could have driven it down and at least had your car a way home.
I was gonna suggest kick down linkage but wasn’t sure if that applied with a manual valve body or not
Stupid question, the gear vendors unit isn’t engaged when it shouldn’t be right?
He can just shut that off to rule it out.
New ones won't engage till 25mph and automatically disengage below 25.
Still like I said even with the unit on it won't shift unless you push the button to tell it to shift. I would just shut it off and try without it.
Cool wasn’t sure how they worked now a days. It’s been years since I’ve been in a car with one, at one point, they were electric activated with a switch but again, that’s been nearly 20 years go .
Correct
That makes no difference. 1 2 shift revs. 2 3 shift revs..od right in..
Still are just when you shift,but you can turn it off altogether and just use it standard shift. Except for racing I only used it for a final overdrive.
Ok but your not splitting the 1 2 or 2 3 shift just using it for overdrive and it works fine?
Blocked filter? or maybe pump?
Call T/A in the AM. Their MVB, they ought to know what can cause that. I've only used 727s that actuate the throttle pressure lever
Just talked to Tim, he’s gonna take it out and see if it magically is better. Says no smell of burnt fluid and fluid still is full and red. Im thinking stuck governor or something clogged , maybe the filter or like Matt says, something blocking the pump
Yeah just he has Simone with him too. I’m gonna toss my jack stands and floor jack into my Jeep so I can bonsai down there tomorrow once the tire is on
Gov is a possibility too. I'd have to think or rather look up how that interplays.
Did have the one in my heep come apart, and was able ot limp home home revving on low gear.
Put a hole in the case too.

Mine stuck on my 727 in my 74 charger. My first ever DIY rebuild, which I had to redo cause it stuck. But for me, it did the opposite, it banged the gears in HARD. So hard, it’d stall the car out
