Lol. Just did this today.  The job was really a breeze.  Got everything back together and the car running again.  Only ran into a few hiccups(normal for me). First thing is, the throttle seems to be sticking.  I reset the TPS to .42. Whenever im driving, the car will run fine, then out of no where the it starts to slightly pull on its on.  I also accidentally pushed in that one button(i believe its the TV cable) and now my shifts extremely early. Just need to iron those things out so i can find more things to work on.

Im going to re-adjust the TV cable based on Steve's site, but the sticking of the throttle is the main culprit

You are the man!  We gonna have you graduating into a full blown Buck expert pretty soon!

[phil_long]

Heck yeah!!! Lol. Now, what do i do about the sticking throttle? Lol

[Steve Wood]

If it still sticks after adjusting the tvs, check the cables where the attached to the throttle lever to see if something is binding there...that would be my first suggestion

Does it bind when you disconnect all three cables?  If not, attach one at a time and check each time to see if there is a problem

[phil_long]

Will do. Hopefully it was just the TV cable because it was adjusted completely wrong. Keep ya posted.

[Steve Wood]

Don't drive the car until it is adjusted!

[phil_long]

Got the TV cable adjusted the way Vortex instructed. It seems that my cruise control cable was responsible for sticking.

so, how does 17 psi feel?

Can you tell if the car is running more smoothly in regular driving?

[phil_long]

Lol.  Not sure how 17 psi feels yet. man i drive like a granny. i made it up to about 13 lbs saturday and the tires started turning over, so i just let out and said forget it.  Lol.  After re-adjusting the TV cable, the car shifting a lot more firm than what it was when i picked it up from the shop.  I havent went full throttle yet, but im afraid to. Lol. And i might have a KR issue. I think we covered that already though and said it could be the motor mount

[phil_long]

Also, under normal acceleration, it shifts really late IMO.  Maybe about 2200-2400? I swapped over to the scantool really late but it was around there.  I'll double check again

[phil_long]

The car runs great though.  Extremely smooth idle, great drivability. Seems like power at my foot. I never imagined that this car would run like this. It appears I was losing all of my power from that timing chain issue.  I'll post pics of that tonight

[Steve Wood]

I have forgotten exactly, but mine is in third gear just before 30 mph, I think...at light throttle.  It should shift cleanly, but, not too late.  You can move the cable one notch and see if that gets it more in line.  Does it look about like mine ridgewise?

Sounds like your timing chain has been going out for awhile

You need to go full throttle at least once to finish setting the TV cable. (engine off is OK)

If you haven't fully actuated the throttle , you might be riding around with the cable overly tightened.
