I don’t know what it is with me and transmissions but we just can’t get along. I had my original 700r4 professionally rebuilt about a month ago and last night I got on it nothing to crazy and it wouldn’t shift... pulled over checked TV cable and it was fine everything seemed ok, got it home left it alone and this morning I was browsing the forums for this and a common problem with not shifting out of 1st gear is the governor, checked it and the valves were stuck, cleaned it up got the valves free put it back in and it was doing the same thing. Took it back out took the governor out of my other 700r4 and it’s still not shifting. Double checked the TV cable, trans fluid is still nice and pink doesn’t smell bad and so now I’m kinda stuck. I’m gonna call the guy who rebuilt in the morning see if he can help me out but I’m posting this to see if you guys have any easy things to look for. Any help is appreciated! **update it will shift out of first but not until 4500 RPM
