BW35 no 2-3 shift 140-160 1974

Two things I'd try first:

1. Ensure the adjustment cable is adjusted properly (it's the OTHER cable on the throttle linkage that runs down to the tranny). You can play around with the adjustment and get the tranny to shift better/worse depending on the adjustment.

2. Obviously, ensure there's plenty of tranny fluid. I would recommend putting a product by the name of "Trans-X" in as an additive. The stuff works wonders.
