I have tried cranking up the modulator pressure and it only makes the other shifts harsher.

I tried putting it in B and it acted exactly the same. I misdiagnosed the problem it seems. When I held it to it I found out that is not actually a slip it is just taking off in first.

I think this would indicate that the B1 band isn't grabbing? Has anyone ever heard of a B1 servo problem? I have had those apart before but I the only thing I remember is that the spring is alot stiffer than the B2.

Thanks for the help.

Matt
