Back that screw out and try it again...1/4 turns make all the difference in those red stripe modulators...Let us know what you find.
Thank you for the heads up on this. I did not make any adjustments on the modulator as I am a firm believer in change one thing at a time, however I will do so now.

To be honest with you all, one thing that may have thrown a Monkey Wrench into this whole experiment is all that automatic transmission fluid that dumped out when I removed the governor, I have since added more fluid (yes before the first test drive, ha ha) however I need to check the level and make sure we have the proper amount. Just thought I throw that in there.
