Took my 904 out for some detailing and a 6K governer weight. Checked the bands, adjusted the rear to 4 turns, front to 2 turns (4.2) lever (B &M Transpak). Put the deal back in, and ....
P, R , N all fine. Put it in D or 2 it feels like its in high gear. Pull down to 1st and it takes off fine. However, it will shift into 2 or 3 from first like a man valve body.

Did I screw up the giverner weight somehow? This was a working trans before. Any advice?

Thanks

I have always set my second gear bamd at 1 1/4 to 1 1/2 turns. Mostly 1 1/2 turns except for one trans that didn't want to shift into second gear.

I'm thinking the governer weight I put in may be wrong somehow...

The only thing you did was adj the bands & ch the gov weight? the valve body was not gone into(on this deal)?

Taking off in a gear other than 1st is a governor problem, if the governor pressure is too high at a standstill the trans will think it's traveling at road speed and shift to a higher gear.

Go back into the tailhousing and check the governor installation, be sure the valve and weight are free to move.

Light travels faster than the speed of sound,,,this is why some people seem bright untill you hear them speak.
