I have a call into the trans builder, but he's busy.
Back story is the Stage 2 Garmon that I have has 50k miles on it. Oil changed regularly, but haven't ever adjusted the bands or anything else. Temp has been kept in check. During my last trip out of town with trailer in tow. It would seem to take anywhere from 4 to 30 seconds to go from tow haul to OD after depressing the button, light goes off, converter unlocks, engine just revs, on and off the throttle won't make it shift. Then it has a mind of it's own, and gets to it.
Fast forward, once home, the trans will shift thru the gears and lock up fine in Tow Haul, just like on the trip. And will shift just fine when on the throttle good, thru all of the gears, and then overdrive like normal. Even when putting along does fine until 45mph of so, when it should be shifting again. Just hangs for 10 to 30 seconds.
I have dropped the pan and there isn't chunks or snap rings in there. Looks fine to me. Checked the shift cable out and it seems ok, not tight or loose. Did place an order for all of the electronics. Any clue what Jeff wants on the band adjustment when I go back inside? Factory specs? I have read about different lever ratios being a different procedure. And am I headed the right direction with the OD/TCC solenoid?
