You see when I looked at my cable I don't have the green button thing which I found out later at my buddies house its silver and on the passenger side. So thats why I thought it wasn't the same. Sorry. Well my buddies dad said if i adjusted it wrong I could mess somthing up. I just got back from a weekend in minnesota(took girlfriends car) and I haven't had a chance to looks at it. Thanks for the help

Ok, well I took it back to the guy I bought it from and told him what was going on. He said that the tranny was replaced 3k miles after the engine was rebuilt and he took it for a ride. He saw what was happening and he said thats because it downshifts into 2nd(I don't remember why). Then he told me to put the peddle just 3/4 of the way down and it downshifts into 3rd which is plenty of power to pass somone. Does anyone know why it dsownshifts into 2nd, I know he told me but I can't remember. Anyone else have this with their 700-r4?

It better not be downshifting to 2nd at 65mph. I'd take it to a tranny shop and ask them to check the cable adjustment.
They might adjust it for free, or at least real cheap. Maybe $20 for a case of beer.
Lots of tranny shops will road test and advise you at no charge.....it's worth asking.
Let us know what you find out.
By the way, I agree with the guys that it's probably just a tv ( or also called DETENT) cable adjustment

BTW, I know i'm a little delayed on saying thanks and what not, but yeah, it was my TV cable. The tranny placed fixed it for free. I just went on a cruise with the guy and he adjusted it and I told him i'de pich him 20 bux, but he wouldn't take it. Thanks guys.
