Really? When you press the accelerator, the linkage moves the arm in the same way - why would it be different? On a gas engine the vacuum would be close to zero at full throttle so the VCV should mimic the same kind of situation. Anyway, I'll do a test drive and see what the car is shifting at. Could be the linkage arm needs adjusting. Anyone know if the VC is supposed to be at 0 when the car shifts?
