Anthony,

This switch isn't going to look right to you because I "built" this overdrive unit. But anyway, this is the vacumn switch for the torque converter solenoid.

What this switch does is "unhook" the converter when you pour the coals to it. It works in conjunction with, and is in series with that brake switch that the other boys are talking about.

Your truck does not have a "kickdown cable" per se. But rather a throttle cable, which works the throttle valve against governor pressure to determine which gear the truck should be in.

Usually, a frayed or sticky cable will stop your shifting or at the very least delay it.

Another important item on those 700s is to make sure the silly fuel filter is clear because it can really mess up the shifting if it is even partially plugged.
