1998 B2500 shift points
Have a question about the normal shift points on my 1998 B1500. I had to add a quart and a half of fluid to get it to normal. Took it out on the road, 1-2 shift happens @ 15 mph, 2-3 happens @ 35 (have to gun it to make it happen) then into OD about 45-50. Fluid is normal red color with no adverse smell.. Van sat for about 6 months before I bought it. When I put it into each gear from park,they engage firmly .I would hold my foot on the brake in each gear, then press accelerator pedal down. with no slippage.When I downshifted on the road coming to a stop, it went into 2nd, then low as it should. What should I do next? Do a filter change? Has 143k on it.are there any kickdown adjustments?

Really helps to have two people....
Lock the lever on the trans so it can't move. (jam it with something, or, have your second warm body hold it in place.) At the throttle body, adjust the cable so there is NO slack. Go for a drive, see how it shifts. Still to low? Pull the cable a bit tighter, one notch at a time, then test drive. Find a spot you like, leave it there.
