Take apart the clamp and clean it. Do not lube it.

for years now I've wanted to put a dually setup in a M1009! How unsane would that be yall?

Power Service.

With your symptoms, yes. Mine was just plain stuck, so this didn't work on mine. You should definetely try disconnecting it and test drive it. Joe.

If you think maintianing a vehicle is expensive, try not maintaining it.

Firecontrol, The kickdown soleniod inside the tranny pan was stuck on mine. I just replaced it, now it shifts great. It sounds like yours is sticking some. Disconnect that single wire on the drivers side of the tranny, and give it a test drive. Joe.

FIXED! TM America called it. Another Indiana Boy I might add... Kickdown Solenid inside tranny pan. aka Transmission Control Solenoid. $19 next day at Advance Auto. It is a 1 wire style. They will try to give you one with 2 wires. Oh yeah, $25 in tranny fluid, $10 for a gasket and filter, $4...

Yes, Rick. I've adjusted that Vacuum Valve on the side of the injection pump all the way forward, and all the way back. No change either way. I think towards the firewall is lower shift points, and towards the radiator is higher shift points. Joe.

Okay, today I swapped vacuum modulators with the one on my other truck that works fine, no change, still very late shift. I also ran a long vacuum hose in to the cab to monitor vacuum while driving. So, vacuum pump, vacuum lines, vacuum modulator, and vacuum valve, all seem to be working as...

Thanks, I have backed the screw out one turn on the vac mod. I will try backing it out some more, or is there a way to bench test these things? Seems like I could use a hand vac pump on it. Would I here a click, or something to know it is working? Joe.

How many should there be? What would that mean? Would that cause these symptoms?

When you floor it, you are sort-of in the kick down circuit. It should shift at most 35-40 if you are on the street. If you are at a dead stop, and it has a big load on it, (like you are stuck in the mud) you don't want it to shift into 2nd! Describe your symptoms more please.

M1009. Typical symtoms. Late shift. 35mph 1-2, 60mph+ 2-3. -Nice, clean tranny fluid. -All new vacuum lines. -New vacuum modulator. -about 20hg at idle, at vacuum pump. -about 10hg at idle, at vacuum modulator. -I bypassed the vacuum valve by connecting full vacuum to the vacuum modulator, and...

The governer cover gasket is there, otherwise the tail housing gasket, or tranny-t-case gasket.

Do you mean the top toward the bell housing? Or, back over the tail housing?

Yes sir, the plastic, half-ball bushing goes between the spring and the frame mount. Joe.

Sorry 'bout the quality! Joe.

Jeff, It has a new red stripe vacuum modulator. I also just removed the governer from the trans for inspection, it looks great, and moves freely. I'm lost.

Sky manufacturing cross over kit? How much was this kit? Where did you find it? It looks really nice.

I bypassed the vacuum valve, by hooking the vacuum modulator straight to the vacuum pump. As far as I understand, this should make it shift soft and early, it does not. It still shifts 1-2 at 35mph, and no 2-3 shift at all, even at 60mph. I have more than 20hg at the vacuum pump, and with the...
