Transmission Troubles

[rascal_rascal_99]

Fix one problem and another one starts...I just got done fixing a problem with my 92 LT1 randomly not wanting to start (or it seems to be fixed so far) but now I've got a new problem. When I took it for a drive, it's not changing gears or selecting gears like it should. I backed out of the driveway and pulled it into drive, it hesitated for a second before engaging 1st gear, then seemed to take off okay, but stayed in 1st a long time before shifting out on easy acceleration. If I take off hard, it only goes up to about 35mph then shifts on into 2nd. If I'm cruising along at 45-50mph and floor it, it only comes down one gear instead of dropping down to 2nd and really taking off. I don't think right now that there's actually anything wrong with the transmission, leaning more towards something like a vacuum line problem or I've pulled a plug or wire loose or something that's just not keeping it from selecting gears properly. Whatever it is, I'm missing it. ;help

Is the TV cable to the throttle body adjusted correctly?
Or the trans governor may be sticking

I end up calling him on anything else I'm going to just put him on speed dial! :L Ironic thing is when I heard from him, he's got another one there he's working on right now that's got the exact same symptoms.
