I don't have the money or wrench skills to swap to a manual. I'm hoping I can get more out of this tranny. I'll be moving back south for school soon and won't be driving it much at all. Less than 1000 miles a month for sure. Likely closer to 500.

Yesterday she almost red lined. I've got to watch the gas pedal. Anything over 30 tps kills it. But if I let off the gas right before it should shift and then give it gas, it'll shift fairly decent.

What did you do to get such a good lean burn? I tried searching your post history but I only seem to see that you mentioned some sort of device?
