The lockup solenoid is inside the tranny. This locks the tranny in overdrive. If it sort of acts like you are letting the clutch out, like in a manual, when put in gear, this could very well be the cause.

You can buy a tool to fit the mixture screw heads. Someone on here bought some from I think Pepboys. I can't remember what they are called though. You more than likely will have to remove the hardened plugs covering the screws first.

I made a tool to fit mine. I used a piece of steel tubing, I think it was 1/4" or so. I bent the two opposing sides flat. Works great.

Hey, us Mikes are good people.
