200 4r slight bind on 3-4 shift

[Mike T]

Ok now we can identify the VB. Found a few potential problems....both mtv up shift and down shift valves were stuck, got a better pic of the accumulator valve I think the first photo may have been deceiving, I did take it apart and it had some gunk in it as well. all valves were moving freely with the exception of these 3.

Have a Hughes deep pan and upon removal the filter came down with it so potential air there. One side of the metal transfer tube on the VB seems to be loose so once again potential leak.

Or just ride bicycle everywhere. All kidding aside it was great to see you the other day and the timing of the visit couldn't have been more perfect. Tell me how does it feel to ride in a car that shifts better than yours?
