Everything was working before I changed out the parts.

The original problem was the transmission modulator. It was allowing tranny fluid to be sucked up into the intake. Because of this, my car was bellowing out thick white smoke. I had originally thought it was a blown head gasket. So I had the head tested and leveled and replaced the gasket myself (along with various other small things that I've been meaning to get to for a while).

Started the car up and let it run for only a few minutes. That was all it took to turn my neighborhood into a scene from the movie "The Fog". Did Some more research and that's when I found out that it was my modulator. I changed it (along with the neutral safety switch) and here I am.

I did a search, however, I couldn't find anyone who has had my problem.

I took out, cleaned, tested and replaced the kickdown switch. So, I know that's one I can scratch off of the list.

I'll double check the vacuum line again alond with trying to find out more about the "gov plastic driven gear" that you mentioned.

Again, I'd like to thank everyone for their help and advice!
