Car is the 85 760 Turbo in my signature.
Got it back driving again after a long while sitting and after about 50 miles the car started to shift extremely hard. It's also very reluctant to shift- at light constant throttle it holds on to first until 3500 RPM then slams into second, and highway driving it sits at 60MPH right around 3k and refuses to go into OD until 80-85 MPH. Fluid level is OK but old, getting changed tomorrow anyway.
Did a quick search here and it seems my symptoms are indicating a broken kick down cable, but the cable itself doesn't look broken- only the sheath around it when it was crimped to the ferrule-
Am I going nuts or would this be causing these shifting problems?
