PG question....

Post by tommy44432 »

Rebuilt PG has low gear and reverse but no drive. Will move in both "L" and "R" but when put into drive the car won't move. Will not manually upshift either. Have tried two different governors in a hail Mary move with no difference. Fluid is up to snuff. TV linkage is properly adjusted according to the service manual. What am I missing or did I eff up rebuilding it? FYI prior to rebuild it did not want to shift from low to drive, forcing the rebuild.

Troubleshooting guides like the one below can be helpful. This one seems to point to the governor as a possible cause for your failure to shift to DRIVE...
