TV rod adjustments for my 85 CFI?

[Deermann]

Hi,

I'm adapting my car to LPG and had to mount a mixer under the throttle body. That changed the adjustments, because the throttlebody is now mounted higher (about 1/2").

The trans started shifting very strange, it started slipping in gear.
I tried to adjust things and looked on the net to find the right procedure.

What seems the way to do it is to position it halfway between max (floored) and minimum. But that gave me very strange shift behaviour. A lot of slipping of gear.
Also the lever at the trans will be in any direction you put it, should it be up or down?

What should I do, I don't like to waste my trans experimenting.

Here are the pictures of the setup

Are both ends still moving like they should? Anything binding? If the unit sits up higher, Id guess you need to move the adjuster down some towards the end of the rod. Try 1/4" increments and see if it improves.
I adjusted mine by feel, 10 years ago, still goin

Yes, that worked! Thanks.
