Re: what causes this?

yeah. ist normal like 89 was saying, but if its like that is ok too, its not the kickdown though its the throttle valve cable, sorry 89 but there is quite abit of difference. like he was saying, its the line pressure, when that cable is tighter it opens the throttle valve in the tranny more sooner and it creates more line pressure, witch creates fermer shifts. if you loosen it, well or corectly adjust it like 89 was saying then it will be right like it was saposed to be from the factory but it will change the shift charecteristics(spelling) some. the tighter the cable the fermer the shift, the looser the less responsive and crips the shift, not atlot but some, but also, too loose, and there goes your tranny.
