What makes a 700R4 shift?
The 700R4 uses a cable that connects the throttle linkage to the transmission’s throttle valve (TV) in the valvebody. This is the governor that commands WOT up-shift speeds. The cable moves the throttle valve in the valvebody and increases transmission line pressure as the throttle opens.
Where is the governor located on a 700r4 transmission?
The governor is located on the driver’s side of the transmission. This is easy to identify since it is the only round cover. Remove the governor by pulling it out with a slight clockwise twist. Different weights can be obtained to change the shift points on the transmission.

What’s the difference between a 700R4 and a 4L60?
Well, the 700r4 uses a TV cable as the speedometer, and the 4L60 is an electronically controlled transmission, so if you see wires coming to the transmission on the rear of the transmission on the passenger side, you have a 4L60. The safest way of checking your transmission is to look at the identification tag on the transmission.
What happens when the cable is not adjusted on a 700R4?
The TV cable on the 700R4 and 200-4R transmissions controls line pressure, shift points, shift feel, part throttle downshifts, and detent (full throttle) downshifts. So if the TV cable is not adjusted properly, it can cause numerous transmission problems.
When was the transmission changed to the 4L60?
It is also very easy to find replacement parts for this transmission. The 700r4 transmission was not electronically controlled yet; it was hydraulic pressure controlled with a TV cable which acted as a throttle position sensor to control the gear shifting. In 1991~ the 700r4 transmission was replaced by the popular transmission 4L60.
