Question 3

When I'm on the Highway I have to put it into L2 to jump to higher gear, if I just floor it it lags picking up speed. Secondaries not opening?

You have a TH350, or TH 400?
The kickdown isn't kicking.
If a 350, the cable is disconnected or misadjusted.
If it is a 400, you'll have to ask someone else.

Could be kick down cable ain't kickin' down. The trans should drop down to L2 when you floor it. (we are talking T350?) Make sure your floor area under the pedal is clear of stuff (beer cans and such).

May those who love us, love us, any of those who do not love us, may God turn their hearts.
And if God is unable to turn their hearts, may he turn their ankles so we may know them by their limping.

A man who works with his hands is a laborer; a man who works with his hands and his brain is a craftsman; but a man who works with his hands and his brain and his heart is an artist.

Yes TH350, I cleaned all the beer cans out yesterday but there might be a few more under the seat.
