So maybe he's confused with the terminology. I've seen bigger threads go on for 24 pages of one mis-hap after another and wondered if it was real as well. No one can have that bad of luck or be that inept but who's to say.
If all this kid did was make a terminology error and is having trouble shifting into 3rd gear then all the people bashing him are really not helping to find the problem he's having. The site is here for help. He had 3 posts. Obviously he's a little confused. I guess all you experts out there who felt like they had to bash were just natural born mechanics and have never made a mistake or been confused.
I agree with slapping the stupid people of the world but I'm not convinced he's in that group yet.

It makes you shift from first to fourth gear at low rpms to save fuel. You can get rid of this with computer programming. However, there is no other block that would keep you out of any gears while youre driving, its totally dependant on what the driver selects.
^^^^^ That sounds like the right answer to me. he must be trying to go into gear and its sticking him into 4th. Only really had that issue doing into 2nd from first... but hey..

lol... sometimes I wish I could lower my shift point... but I can't bring myself to shift before 6k on some days, heheeh..... could be cags... you can just put a 99 cent resistor in the sensor on the tranny to disable it.
Hey...maybe this guys on to something!
If any of you figure out what the hell he's talking about let me know, cause I'd love to have my T-56 shift by itself at wot and have the best of both worlds.

Seems to be hard to catch above 3000 RPM.
How can change the factory shift points?
Thanks,
