Have a 93 v6 2wd Dak with 61k original miles purchased last week. The tranny does not slip, trans fluid full & clean, problem is shifts from 1st to 2nd at 32 rpms & from 2nd to 3rd at 38rpms OD is fine. Gets about 12miles to a gallon if not TV what else could be wrong? Any suggestions would be appreciated.

 

Adjust your TV cable.

 

I would strongly suggest it is the TV cable. Did you try adjusting it?
If not then maybe something wrong with the valve body.

Check out the this post on how to adjust the TV cable. Move it in and out if going by the book doesn't work.

Its really great you guys give your time/solutions in helping people out. I just don't want to be taken by some tranny shop if all it needs is a TV adjustment

 

Picked truck up today $20 fix return spring of detent cable on tranny froze up.Boy am I happy! Truck shifts great now as it should, engine runs quieter. Should also be getting better MPG's since shifting at lower RPM's again thanks for the help'
