tranny Vacuum question

[dstang97]

At idle how many hg's should the quage read? With a little fuel does pressure go up or down?

Trying to chase down a late transmission shift

Thank you

shift late what do you mean ? mine shifts around 35 mph to 3rd in my M1008

I set my m1009s at 13 or 14 at idle.

Make sure your lines are free and clear from the top of the engine to the tranny. I recently had a line clog and it took me longer than it should have to figure it out.

That's why I'm starting with a gauge and starting at the tyranny

Thanks for the info

If you have not already replaced all the rubber vacuum lines in the system, do so. 95% of "late" or "hard" shift problems will end with 10 minutes and $3 of tubing.

If that won't help, look here:

Also, in the Resources section TM 9-2320-289-20 should have the complete troubleshooting procedure. If you have a slow internet service and don't want to grow a ponytail waiting for the TM to download, shoot me a PM. I'll try to extract just the pages you need and send them to you.
