Good evening everyone,
I adjusted my line pressure conduit per the FSM, and took her for a spin.
Applying WOT in o/d, the transmission downshifted beautifully and the
throttle stuck wide open. The line pressure cable connector(plastic) had
broken. At least we can shut down our Jeeps by turning off the ignition,
unlike Toyota:roflmao:
Still drives fine, shifts fine. I am tired, and no I have not searched what
the function of the line pressure cable is. I have learned a ton from this
forum, so if anyone would like to inform me, and has the time, I would
appreciate it. If not, I can search and learn more tomorrow.
I am betting the broken connector can't be bought seperately, so that means a new cable and pulling the transmission pan etc. I might just buy
the parts on this one and let a garage with a lift do the job.
Any information and insight on this is appreciated. I am just glad my wife
wasn't doing the test driving. This is the first time I've had a throttle stick open, and it gives you a little pucker:laugh:
Thank you!
Greg
