hey fellas, as always you guys helped me out on my Q's, and know i got another one. Everytime i floor it (GAS Pedal), or just plain ol romp om it, i notice that my tranny never hits redline or even close to it in any gears even with the overdrive off, but if i shift it manually it will, but that only gives me the first 2 gears. Its a 47re, and the tranny is basically stock from what i can tell. I mean is this normal. Does this happen to others with this tranny, or should i be worried about something. Plaese shine a light on this. I am considering a transgo shift kit too.

not all at once please. ha ha

 

Thats pretty much normal.

 

well if its normal thats great, but also when im at around 38-39 mph it goes in and out of gear then finally shifts into overdrive around like 43-44, which i know is normal but dont like the whole gear engage/disengage feel i get at 38-39.

 

What mods have you done to your truck?

I should have clarified that I have a 12V auto not a 24V.

 

governor pressure solenoid possibly?

 

If Im not mistaken there is some sort of fix for the in/out of gear problem. A noise filter. DTT sells them.

 

just turn over drive off till you hit 55 and you wont have the problem

 

or you could be "white" about it and fix it instead of temporarily changing line pressure/ shift points.

 

i just used foil and a wire cover on the smaller red cable coming off the pass side battery to the alternator and it stoped doing that. worked the same as a noise filter.

 

More explanation...what is a "wire cover"?
