im interested to hear how you got 72 in/lbs out of a ft/lbs torque wrench?
at this point, regarding the tv cable, your not trying to make shifts changes but return it back to stock, since its messed up. so verify that the shift lever is all the way to the front of the truck. VERY carefully pull the TV cable off of the stud at the the throttle lever and verify that the hole on the plastic boot is perfectly centered over the stud, when the cable is taught, but not moving the shift lever.

should the bands be adjusted?
i reset the TV cable (according to the haynes manual) to within 1/32 in all directions and snapped it back on. drove the truck and it shifts ok. still have my original problem and am going to the parts store now to get the sensor and solenoid.

i will drain out the bucket of use fluid through a coffee filter and see if there are big chunks or whatever else.
i had to pick the wife up from work so i will have to finish tomorrow as it got dark.
thanks for all the patience yall have shown me as i work out this problem.
i have so much i need to do to this truck as i cant afford to buy a new one. the payments would kill me.
