Should be a kickdown linkage from throttle linkage to the trans, but it's been so long since I played with that I can't tell you details without spending a long time looking for them... I think you should have a rod from the carb throttle to a bracket mounted to the back of the engine (top of Trans B/H) and a rod down to the trans shifter??
Check your assembly manual for the parts involved ... should be in the PowerGlide option section.
I thought so will check get back to you thanks
There is an adjustment procedure in the shop manual. The adjustment also affects shift pressure/firmness, in the same manner that a TV cable adjustment does on a 700-R4 or 200-4R transmission.
