Redlining before shift
2000 Dakota R/T 60000 Miles, all stock
Redlining before shift
I noticed one day that if I got on it WOT that I would redline before shifting. I figured I had a tranny problem so I changed the filter and oils. The problem was still there. I started scouring the forum and ended up trying to adjust the TV cable. No matter the position I still redline. What are your suggestion on where I start looking next?
Any and all help will be appreciated
Thanks,
-Keith

THROTTLE VALVE CABLE
DESCRIPTION
Transmission throttle valve cable (Fig. 237) adjust- ment is extremely important to proper operation. This adjustment positions the throttle valve, which controls shift speed, quality, and part-throttle down- shift sensitivity.
If cable setting is too loose, early shifts and slip- page between shifts may occur. If the setting is too tight, shifts may be delayed and part throttle down- shifts may be very sensitive.
A correctly adjusted throttle valve cable will cause the throttle lever on the transmission to move simul- taneously with the throttle body lever from the idle position. Proper adjustment will allow simultaneous movement without causing the transmission throttle lever to either move ahead of, or lag behind the lever on the throttle body.

Okay, throttle body lever and the lever on the tranny are in absolute sync. (had to use a camcorder, long AV cables and a TV to verify it but it is done.) Still have the rev limiter kicking in and some funny shifts happening.
What would you recommend next...pressure reg, speed sensor, band adjustment?
I know you have seen the questions hundreds of times and I appreciate you all putting up with me.
Thanks,
