Re: t bird trans problem
Make sure your TV line (kickdown cable) is adjusted properly. If it is too tight it won't allow the trans to shift properly. Just a thought...

agree with flew on this but 84 didnt have cable it had solid linkage rod that went from cfi unit to kickdown on side of trans and with no linkage rod hooked up it defaults to passing gear(internal spring loaded ) 91 did have cable so not exact swap i learned this on my 84 5.0 cougar and i would check shift modulator if all else is ok cause the leak tranny fluid internally thru a rubber diaphragm this too will not let trans shift
