I bet your 3/2 valve are leaking vacuum....I plugged off the lines going to the black box on top of valve cover...no mo leaks up there....bb's work just fine. I am sure you'll hear "pull all that crap off the valve cover and clean up the engiine bay, ditch the EGR valve and block off the hole", and you can! I just wanted that stock look for state inspection reasons...none of that stuff is functional any more, buts it is there to be seen!

Mine now shifts great. Also replace the vacuum connection down on the transmission where it hooks to the vac modulator valve...bet the old one is crap by now.

Plastic line onto banjo bolt....try heating the line in hot water or with a heat gun to soften the plastic and then push it on.
