If you don't know to adjust the kick down cable. Don't. leave it for the pro's. You can send a pm to me like shrpshtr325 had said, I maybe able to guide you. And don't touch that idle screw.

Go to a junk yard and get a new one......LOL


I looked anyway and came up with no insructions in the Service Manual. The idle is controlled by the PCM.

actually will do... i will hit the junk yards tomorrow in search of 2 black passenger side doors... and the idle screw assembly lmao! . hopefully it will solve my problem. Bought a optima battery today too... noticed some change in hp and a smoother idle but again didnt solve the problem and replaced the output sensor today also. Some fine grit metal fragments on the tip... not sure if thats why it might have been acting up but still have the problem of... the very first shift is kinda wack... I have to let up on the gas to get it to shift then it shifts fine the entire trip even if i stop at a red light it doesn't act up. but that very first take off it will not shift unless i floor it at its hult or let up on the gas. Innoying as hell wish i knew a cure.
