As I was not scientific in my diagnosis (I did not, for example, revert to the old brake band setting, or go back to my old TPS) I cannot be certain that these other components did not have some small contribution to my problem. However, there was no noticeable impact on my transmissions behavior after each of these steps were completed. And a profound one when I replaced the resistor.


Could you point me to an informative article on the function of the resistor on transmission behaviour? How does it affect shifting abruptness (or lack there of) It is a common modification to remove this resistor to induce firmer shifts, and I can attest that it does just that in a very noticeable way.

Thanks,
Patrick

Anyone know what this magical resistor behind the battery looks like?!!? any pictures of it floating around here?
