Transmission overdrive kit for 945 B230FT ? 900 1993

Hi Dave, Happy New Year,

I flushed the tranny two years ago with full synthetic when I got the car.
This shifting issue is new, and there's no leaking tranny fluid.

After shipping, the plastic IPD kit is about the same as the metal Aisen Warner kit. I sprung for the AW that starts off in Chicago instead of the left coast.

Q: Can I get at the OD solenoid with the car on ramps?
Q: Does the OD solenoid have a connector down below ?

Assuming there's OD solenoid connector I'll pack it with Coax-shield
(Similar to duck seal) and tape it up in case I ever want to reinstall an OD solenoid for towing.

Q: Do you have a better idea for weather proofing that connector?

Some people have found frayed solenoid wires, so I'll know more when I get under there. Sometime after this weekend's slush storm at the coast.

Tel me about a "sticking down-shift cable"
Is that the cable from the tranny to the throttle rollers?
How-to confirm it's behaving and what to do about it?

Thanks, Bill
