Update - I found that I had a new filter/gasket set (not Mann), so changed

Where does one find documentation on this governor? It's a 722.4. Other
than changing the fluid and RR, I have no experience working on auto
trannys.

One finds it by ggling, there is a couple of pdf's floating around
the net, regarding the 722.3/4 boxes.
Seeing as I am trying to get my Mum's 722.4 to work properly I have

Yup - it was shrink wrapped with a gasket. I think I have another one on
hand --- h.

Get a Mann and a gasket on the way from Q, swap em and see what

only has first and second gear, doesn't get to third.
The interesting part is that it used to leave a black smoke cloud large
enough to obscure the car at and above 4000 rpm. Now it's smokeless, and

Remember what kind for filter you put in the trans?

Q sells at least 2. For a 124, you need to ask for the Mann. Those
come in a yellow box, and you need to order the gasket separately.
If you got the kit that was shrink wrapped to the card with gasket
and filter, that could be your problem.
There is something different about the 124
A restricted fuel filter can also cause shifting problems, but you'd
probably notice having to push down farther on the accelerator more than
before as well.

Ja, but in that case it will shift into 3 and 4. It winds out
further before it shifts because the cable position is wrong for
normal. It will shift unexpectedly from 4 to 3. Often won't get
into 4th unless you back off the throttle.
