Well, I unplugged the kickdown switch (at the switch) and drove home.
Shifting is still not right, but seems to be better. At the least, I
think it needs a k1 spring, and maybe do the b2 piston kit while
there, try to flush out the valve body, then change filter and refill.
Or else do filter and fluid, then drive while waiting on K1 and B2,
then install, do filter and fresh oil again. I am kind leaning to
the latter.
Just because the switch moves freely does not mean that it is functioning.
You need to measure continuity to determine that.
However, I do fear that you have deeper tranny issues, but have no idea
what :-(

Hey Rich -
My 91 300D no longer seems to kick down when starting from a stop. I
checked the switch and it seemed to move freely. So my problem is
elsewhere.

Now, if your pisant could do 45 mpg@150mph, you'd have somethin'!
