You are on the right track. The bolt is the adjuster. The nut is just to lock it and keep it from backing out as did mine and others. If yours was locked down already, and it sounds like it was since it broke off when you tried, then I wonder what tightening the adjuster will do. Still no word on the proper adjustment procedure.
My locknut was also tight to the adjuster, and this allowed me to turn it with my screwdriver, but I couldn't get a wrench to turn the nut and lock it down well. Does it leak fluid when you remove the solenoid?
Do all your forward gears work properly?
Was reverse working well previous to this problem? Mine faded away slowly, assumedly as the nut continued to back itself out.
Have you done all the normal things already, like check the fluid level, perhaps dropped the pan and changed the screen, checked the linkage, etc.?
Still like to see the part of that bolt where it broke. Does it look like it was machined to break away?
