Either way its better to adjust slowly. The farther you turn-in this screw, the higher minimum TV lever position or throttle valve pressure regardless of external TV cable slack.

First, let's define the term. Then the third to fourth shift is normal as far as rpm and time/throttle load. This you turn counter clockwise to raise pressure, and clockwise to lower it. They are easy to install into the side of the VB. When the transmission throttle valve cable is properly adjusted, it should cause both the throttle lever on the transmission and the throttle body lever to move simultaneously from the idle position. Now fluids also play a role in this. 1997 Dodge 4x4 Extended Cab Long Bed. Most people (ourselves included) are more concerned with the behavior-how the trans acts and reacts-than about pressure.

What you need is a 1/8npt grease gun hose and run it to a 1/8 tubing to get a 0-300 psi gauge. For most of us its well worth it to invest in one as well. Location: Good ol' USA!
It's highly recommended to download the factory repair manual when preforming throttle valve cable adjustment procedures. It all boils down to an improperly positioned throttle valve. All times are GMT -5. As for your line pressures they are dictated by a few things. Bracket, 48RE transmission with an electronic throttle valve actuator$ 49.
AOD Steel TV Bushing. The critical issue here is the positioning of the TV valve at idle. The LEFT set screw that has the pressure plate and orange spring(in the photo) controls your line pressure. Posts: 3, 603. you can adjust it from the TPS by removing the clip, but since you have to go under the truck to see if its at full stroke, just take a pliers with you and bend the bracket. When the retaining clip is removed, it provides the ability to adjust the cable. However 48re line pressures are generally higher on the acceptable scale.
