Re: Minnesota Daily Driver

Recently I've noticed an intermittent hesitation when taking off from a stop. I figured out the tranny wasn't always shifting back into 1st when coming to a stop.

To fix it I started by pulling and cleaning the governor which seemed to help. I still wanted to clean & inspect the valve body as it appears the trany's never been worked on. All I've done was change the fluid & filter and install a deeper pan. I figured while I was in there I'd install a shift kit.

Got it installed and went for a test drive. It's definitely shifting back to 1st. Light throttle shifts seem the same and heavy throttle has been improved. So it was a success.
