I knew better....GRRRRRRRR.....

So I picked up that 84 SWB a couple weeks ago with a tore up transmission.. I picked up a used one, installed new front and rear seals, filter and gasket and degreased.. Installed it today.. Shifted fine for about the first 8 upshifts. Then all of a sudden wont upshift from 1st to 2nd without winding the motor out then wont upshift to 3rd or 4th.. Tv cable adjusted right, etc.. SO I am back to where I started and a couple hundred bux thrown away. I can rebuild these damn things myself and I opted not to build the original one because I don't really have the damn time. But I knew better then to use junk yard crap.......... Sorry guys just wanted to let off some steam... After it quits raining I am gonna pull the governor out and check it and if I don't find anyting wrong with it I am gonna pull the valve body and check it out... Then I'll yank it back out.
