Re: transmition adjustments..help wanted (1980 razz)
Some more details of what your friend did would help, but if he was under the hood, he might have closed off the vacuum to the adjustable vacuum modulator at the back of the intake. You can see it in this pic 
. It's the top line of the nipple directly in front of the distributor.
I'm not sure what else you could do from under the hood. Hope this helps.
