Hi Bob,
I just tried that on mine tonight, it does not work like yours... Sea Ya Larry NYC 84 35FCSB one_dusty_hoot am not familiar with your year model. In the 87 you can turn the cruise control ON then press and release the RESUME rocker to the desired rpm. You might try this standing still, and you could try holding the SET control for 2 seconds. Keep your foot off the brake. bob janes, '87fc35, greenville, sc --- In WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com, "davidkerryedwards" > > No way to test it without driving it to my knowledge.

In theroy, if we are talking about the same thing, the longer it is, the faster
the torque converter will go into lockup and the later you will get a downshift. The shorter you make it, the reverse should be true. I have mine shortened up somewhat to hold gears a little longer due to our mountianous terrain (read: lots of big hills that makes Pokey go real slow). Let me know how it works out.

Hi Ernie,
Maybe I did not do it correctly... I reved the engine up to about 1k rpms and hit the cruise set rocker, no good... I then reved up to 1k and hit the set twice, no luck... I also hit resume with the same sequence, no luck... Maybe some one can come up with the proper sequence it may work...

You need air pressure on the air/Bendix cruise ('84 up on FC).
You don't need to rev it, parking brake on, turn on cruise, then hit resume, hit it again for higher idle, set for lower idle, touch brake to cancel (I might have resume and set backwards, but am pretty sure). - Jeff Miller in Holland, MI --- In WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com, Larry wrote: > > Hi Ernie, > Maybe I did not do it correctly...

Although the downsift Bowden cable will affect the shift points, I
don't believe it will change the torque-converter lockup point. - Jeff Miller in Holland, MI --- In WanderlodgeForum@yahoogroups.com, Doug Engel wrote: > > In theroy, if we are talking about the same thing, the longer it is, the faster the torque converter will go into lockup and the later you will get a downshift.

Hi Jeff,
Thanks I will try that next time am up at the coach... Sea Ya Larry NYC 84 35FCSB Jeff Miller need air pressure on the air/Bendix cruise ('84 up on FC).

Doesn't seem like it should, but it did on Pokey. When it was too long, it
virtually skipped straight into 3&4 lockup, really lugged him down.
