i'm sorry don't know much about the RH.... does it attemp to shift to 3rd and just go into neutral or does it stay in 2nd? have you checked the shifter linkage to make sure it is in the correct position for each gear?

I think it maybe going partly inot 3rd but now the darn thing wont even stay runnin.. Just starts for a second and dies. About ready to push it outside and say F it!! I pulled the od section off to check the govenor. Found that the key had slipped down and caused one of the wieghts to get stuck but that didnt fix it either. Checked the codes and nothin there either..

Okay the tranny guy told me my problems were with the govenors he told me to pull the VB and blow air through the port that feeds the govenors. I did and I could hear them clinkin. I put it back together and now have 3rd but I have manipulate the throttle to get it to go in. So I think my Govenors are sticking.. I am gonna drive it to work tomorrow and see if it will clean itself out..

how did it work out?
