FWIW, here's what Chilton says about the brake band adjustment: "On '85 and later models, tighten adjusting screw to 18 ft-lbs, then turn it back exactly 3/4 turn. This adjusts the brake band to the factory specified setting. However, if any of the following conditions are detected, the adjusting screw can be moved 1/4 turn in either direction:
TURN 1/4 TURN CLOCKWISE IF:
-jolts when shifting from 1st to 2nd
-engine speed abruptly rises from 2nd to 3rd, or
-shift delays in kickdown from 3rd to 2nd
TURN 1/4 TURN COUNTER-CLOCKWISE IF:
-car slips from 1st to 2nd, or
-there is braking action at shift from 2nd to 3rd"
comments anyone? Beav, does this sound right? i'd still be nervous about messing with it.
