Transmission questions

[GreyGoose006]

im pretty sure mine was on the drivers side, but i may be wrong, it was a while ago. its a canada car if that matters. i dont think mine is adjustable tho, cause i didnt see any screws inside (the reason i replaced it was that someone mis-diagnosed a fuel-starvation problem as a transmission problem)

The modulator is a valve inside the transmission case that's operated by the vacuum bellows (the part that people call a modulator, myself included). If you look into the hole where the bellows goes, you'll see the end of a spool valve. This must move freely.

Thanks for that clarification. I haven't even been near a 2- or 3-speed auto for years.
