Kick-down cable snapped on Interstate 200 1989

Hey Eric -

Glad you made it home. I was on IM with Dan last night when he put through that you had called. At that time I was already late going to get wife.sig from her workplace, and could only give some ideas to Dan.

What happened to you could happen to any of us autobox drivers, so your limp home story would be good for all of us. What did you wind up doing, were you able to avoid being towed home?

Did the cable part inside the sheath? I thought it was spring loaded from inside the tranny, so the lower part would be pulled in and be in the "Don't downshift" position.

Actually, I dunno how that system works. Just glad you're OK.

Bob
