Re: Torqueflite adjustments

[Herb <zephyr9900@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Yes it is adjustable from the outside.  I am not familiar with the floor
shifter procedure and am just guessing off the pushbutton procedure, but
were the shift cable enters the tranny case is a wheel with several holes in
it and a small bolt holding it to the case.  I bet it might not be too
different than the pushbutton procedure.  With someone holding the shifter
in reverse remove the small bolt and loosen the wheel about five or six
turns.  Pushing in on the cable tighten the wheel till it is snug to the
case. Then using the closest hole as # one in the wheel to the threaded one
in the case rotate the wheel clockwise five holes and reinstall the small
bolt.  That should be very darn close to right but as I said I am just
guessing on the floor shift procedure.  The transmissions are the same the
shifters are just different.  Any corrections or conformations will be
appreciated.

Herb, it will be weeks before I work on the transmission, but would like to
query you on another quirky thing about this torqueflite. It's a floor shift
 When I push the shift lever from 1st to 2nd, it does not shift until I push
the shift lever about 1/8" more. Same from 2nd to drive and drive to neutral
 Is this something I adjust outside the transmission? Thanks/Butch/Ferndale,
WA
