When driving really slow with just a little bit of accelerator,
There is another thread on the subject, but on city streets and slow traffic I keep mine in D not OD. I go to OD only when I hit the highway and am going to stay above 45mph. This keeps the RPM's up and prevents shifting up and down and the torque converter locking / unlocking. :seeya

Mine is a 90 auto
at very very minimum slow gas pedal:
1-2 12 -13 mph
2-3 24 -25 mph
3-4 never, never, never before 54 mph
I think I have a very low shift point on 1-2 and 2-3 but the 3 to overdrive comes very later.
I will be happy to know yours shift points at minimal trottle.....

Shift points on 700R4/4L60
That is my one and only gripe with my trans. In "D" It shifts far too low(4400 punched) my motor should be shifted around 5800. Thing is, I don't want to go messing around with it because it shifts nice at wot even manually,and around town.

Mine is just fine at WOT in "D", shifting @4800-4900,
but when slowly driving it shifts very low.
I start and before you know it's in 3rd gear.
[B]If I try to adjust the TV cable will it effect on shifting at WOT
bacause I don't want to change shift points at WOT, only part throttle!? [B]
Yes, I'm from Croatia.
Greetins to Italy, neighbour. :seeya

If you adjust/reset the TV cable you will not change your WOT shift point!. You will change the part/low throttle shift point. So I suggest to try.

O.K. thanks, i'll try it, but it will have to
wait a little bit, because deep snow is all
around.
I'll let You know on results when I'll be done.
