Hi;

I recently removed my throttle cable from the carb, and upon re-installation, i noticed 2 problems i hadn't observed before.

1. When driving in "D", there are times when the tranny just downshifts for a second and then upshifts without any change in throttle position...

2. When moving off from stationary, the car changes through 1st & 2nd fine, but upon 3rd (3spd)... the car seems to run out of power... feels like the engine is labouring... it will barely past 25mph unless i have a long enough stretch...

I know these problems could be associated with improper cable adjustment, but no matter how i attempt to readjust the throttle cable, it wont change ... i have no access to the service manual .... any suggestions ??
