I'm not really judging the quality of the shift from what it did on jackstands, just relaying what it did. I don't like the way it does a decent and firm 1-2 and then quickly goes to 3, but kinda seems to slide or bounce into 3.

I'll try the throttle rod adjustment, but would like to know more about what adjusting it actually does, what it affects, and how to properly adjust it. Where can I find info on that?

What about the transgo SK-TFSC?

This is all new to me so any help would be great. Thanks for the help so far.
