Check your kick down switch. You might also check to see if the vacuum modulator can be adjusted. But the switch is the first culprit to check, I think. Do you have a picture of the setup of the carburetor on the driver's side?

Looks like auto fill misspelled something into "township". What word did you mean?

Also, I'd recommend starting a new thread so that this one dosen't get derailed.
