New Info Would help me

Well I got to see the car. When I got in it, it shifted ok. So I decided to increase the pressure on the vacum mod. I replaced it about 5k miles ago. It helped the shift points very much. So I drove the car for about 50 miles in town, stop and go to see how she would do. All great until leaving one light it shifted to second then no more. I have come to the conclusion that the bowden cable I think they call it is sticking. I did take off fast and this seems to make since to me. Then it came to life again but the shift points where off and as per researching this cable also controls shift points. Another one though when I went to park it in my drive the shifter would not go past neutral put back in drive moved car a couple feet then it went in park. Guess I will research more. Thanks for this forum, I don't think i would play in the gas MB's if it was not for your guys HELP.
