Car Forum / Honda Cars / December 200587 Prelude tranny problem
I've replace the throttle body on the prelude (2.0 Si 4WS) Made a lot of diff.it works and goes!!!! much better but now tranny shifting stuffed.(Very very late changes)Any ideas ?????? please.(timing is OK,tranny cable adjusted again) Sounds like you still need to adjust the trans throttle valve cable. Late shift usually means the cable is too tight. Good luck. Scott > Sounds like you still need to adjust the trans throttle valve cable. Late > shift usually means the cable is too tight. Good luck. Scott Tx Scott,well it turned out to be the WRONG bloody TB (apperently it was out of "imported wreck") and TPS was the culprit,so replaced it with the original one BUT this time i'd made sure i put the vacum hoses RIGHT way around :-)..Its OK now,actually like new.Tx again mate.Steve ps.According to my tranny mechanic the cable SHOULD be very tight(which he did) it changes very nice'n smooth now. > I've replace the throttle body on the prelude (2.0 Si 4WS) Made a lot of > diff.it works and goes!!!! much better but now tranny shifting > stuffed.(Very > very late changes)Any ideas ?????? please.(timing is OK,tranny cable > adjusted again) Two thoughts, one easy to check and the other not so easy: The tranny cable may be hanging up. With the engine off, the cable should maintain tension at the throttle body as you open and close the throttle. If it is hanging, graphite (I like Lock Ease, graphite in kerosene carrier) squirted inside the cable housing is the ticket. Anything that reduces engine performance will cause the throttle to be open farther than "normal" and make the tranny behave as though the cable is too tight... late shifts. If the response feels good now this probably isn't your problem, though. Mike |
