the Famous transmission hunting has returned

I realize the in rad cooler acts as a heater but the B&M super cooler has a viscosity controlled bypass system that routes the fluid straight through instead of through the stacked plates until the temp is up.
Although at this point I think I will put the OEM back in the loop.
After I pulled the original TPS I compared Ohm readings with the replacement and there was a noticeable difference between closed readings and wide open readings.
The replacement TPS was dead on specs per the FSM.

Thanks for the pic JD !!
That's the one section I didn't look through.


I ordered it from Rockauto .
It seems to shift right where it should now.
Not sure what you mean by the kick down switch adjustment.
I don't have it floored at 60 MPH.

Don't know how much pedal pressure it should take to activate the kick-down switch, but if the switch was too sensitive... Just a thought. Best of luck.

Out of curiosity I just went out and checked.
Dang its hot !!!
The audible click of the kickdown switch is at the end of pedal travel.
But you have me thinking.
As the TPS is a simple potentiometer that will wear and have "Static" at certain points.
Anybody near my age can relate to the Volume knob on the stereo crackling
What if the kickdown switch is flaking out ...
More than once Ive noticed the lockup disengage when I hit a bump.

The mind wanders.
