the adjustment is an 8mm bolt with 18mm jam nut just behind the dipstick...
1. loosen jam nut
2. tighten 8mm bolt
3. make a mark on the bolt
4. back it off 2 1/2 turns
5. hold bolt and tighten jam nut
mine never downshifted into 1st at an intersection. i was always taking off in second gear if i never came to a dead stop. and never downshifted from 3rd to 2nd... shifts good now
