needing some freakin help

[hillbilly delux]

Tranny is shifting like *#&* and i dont know what to do. Just replaced the modulator valve with a dual vacuum modulator valve like the one that was on it. Now it shifts tooo soft. I do not see a adjustment screw. PLEASE HELP BEFORE I SHOVE THIS CORONA BOTTLE IT THE F*$)ER.

I believe there is an adjustment screw on the very back of the modulator. Mine has one. Also, I have only one vacuum line on mine (the other is blocked off) running to the vacuum tree on the rear of the intake manifold.

freakin help ??

I run the green stripe modulator with single hose, you probably can plug one and try it,not the center hose,and as someone said if you want to extend the shifts (firmer shifts) turn the center screw clockwise, and be sure the Corona bottle is EMPTY. Joe

? center hose? I got a green stripe today. It has one hookup at the rear with a setting screw in the vacuum hookup. Will it work? I hope. I'm not going to try it til tomorrow. Out of light and beer.

Yes the green stripe modulator is the one to use. I used to drink Red Stripe when I was in Jamaica. Joe.

Joe, i aslo changed the filter. You don't think there was anything i could have done to cause it to shift like it does? I hope its just the modulator.

Hi Jim: When you changed the filter did a spring and or valve come out of the valve body? Joe.

Also Jim do not overfill the trans.

a spring fell.........but i put it back in. i dont think its overfilled. if it is it will drain a lil tomorrow when i change the modulator valve.
