I'm new to the SC world, so this may be a typical problem. I have a stock '89 with an automatic. Is it typical for the transmission to not want to downshift without adding about 2/3-3/4 throttle? I can't tell you how often this thing is at slightly about 1000 RPM in third, and is reluctant to downshift - this can't be good for the engine.
Can I adjust the cable up at the throttle linkage that goes down to the transmission to affect this? If so, can anyone give me some guidelines of what to look for or how not to mess it up? The previous owner said he tried that adjustment, but then it was reluctant to upshift. He said it was touchy, and put it back.
Thanks,
John
