shifting out at 4500 rpm's
 
i just changed my tranny fluid and filter. i am now having problems with my car shifting out at 4500 rpm's at full throttle. would this have something to do with the kickdown cable? i know nothing about this so help would be great. thanks

make sure you have the correct amount of fluid in there. you probobly over filled it.

overfilling the tranny can make it shift sooner? i am not questioning you, but i just never have delt with tranny's too much. thanks

Too much fluid is bad. My old Z28 shifted early when a shop added to much tranny fluid.

I'm note sure about this- but I *think* this is why-

Transmission shift with respect to certain pressures-
its all fluids/fluid pressures- not physical/mechanical gears like an auto

anyway-
more fluid in less space = more pressure = shift quicker?

I'm sending Fred a link to think-
perhaps he could be so kind as to help us out :)

thanks for the help. i appreciate you sending that link. i really did not know but i was wondering if pressure had something to do with it. what i do know is your bet is probally better than mine. thanks
