Is this normal for a 700R4?
Once the tranny's in 2nd gear, it won't downshift into first under WOT. Shouldn't it downshift to 1st around 20-25 mph? It's not a major problem, but when I need to get into it at about 20, I have to shift it into 1st.

Here's a good explanation, troubleshooting, and adjustment instructions:

It's for 4L60, but basics are the same.

I went ahead and adjusted the TV cable per the above website. The shifts feel too hard to me now. When downshifting at low RPM's and speeds, it bolts into the lower gear and when downshifting into first it feels like it's stuttering a little. Am I probably on my way to the closest tranny shop?
The slider also stays back and doesn't click into a different position when the throttle is pulled back all the way.
