Thanks for the thought, Bruce. That's the first thing the mechanic did when I went back, loosened the throttle cable and told me to see if it made a difference. Oddly, it made things worse -- I could barely go 45mph without the car rocking between third and fourth gear! This morning they removed the bypass and put back the old part/solenoid, so that I can downshift and hold it in third when this starts happening, which is how I've managed the problem for what now seems eternity. It just seems so odd that I was able to drive nearly 500, smooth miles after the bypass was installed, then suddenly, the problem reared up again. On top of this, the gas gauge suddenly stopped working! Waah!
