Hello all

I have the above auto runs fine but have a question this car is an automatic. the problem is i don't know where one end of the kick down goes i think to the trans but can i access with pan removal or not? the cable is messed up at carb end and have new one but hate to tear apart with knowing what i am getting into?

Phil you can put on a new cable for the auto trans without taking the pan off. I change mine a couple of years ago and took the pan off only to find out that it does not help at all. It must all be done from the outside. I do not remember just how it goes, but is on the left side of the trany and above the oil pan.

Phil I am sorry, but I mixed up my left and right. Yes the cable goes to the passenger side of the trany, the right side of the car. I realized this last night as I was going to sleep. I am really busy at work and could just get back to you now. I am looking at 12 or 14 hrs at work tomorrow.
