1. Tranny shifts immediately from 1 to 2 in nearly all situations short of full throttle.
2. When driven with lever left in 4th position, shifts well from 2 to 3, but shifts too soon to 4th.
3. When driven with lever left in 3rd position, shifts hard from 2 to 3.
4. I've adapted by starting out with lever in 4th position (to ease 2-3 shift), then moving lever to 3rd position and keeping it there until I'm ready for 4th.
5. This has the Bowden cable. Indicator window isn't accurate -- is off by 1 gear.
Car has 105,000. Sits idle most of year, unfortunately. But shifting never improves/degrades with use.
Filter and fluid done several years ago, but no other repairs that I know of.
Should I start with vacuum hoses, modulator rebuild, or ?
Thanks in advance.
