Johann, this is how you adjust a kickdown cable.

Hullo Malibu,
Thank you for your response.
When giving throttle from stand-still the car moves smoothly away and then
shifts down suddenly before moving up again. My knowledge of an autobox is
nil. Is there a way of checking the modulator? The vacuum hose is connected.

I'm not sure what you mean. Does the trans shift at the slightest throttle.
If so, it sounds like you may have bad modulator. If the modulator is bad the
trans may think it's at speed and shift. If it shifts late, you may have a
sticking governor. Make sure the vacuum hose is connected to the modulator
and intake.

The trannie on my 65 Malibu is kicking down at the slightest throttle
pressure. How do I adjust it to be less sensitive? My knowledge is restricted
to four on the floor and clutch pedal!
