vacuum modulator adjustment?

how do you adjust the vacuum modulator on a c-6. I pulled off the vacuum line and all i see is a vacuum port for the line. do all modulators have an adjustment?
thanks

Not all of them have the adjustment. It's a screw inside of the modulater. When you pull off the hose it's in the tube. I don't remember which way you turn to shift quicker/later. It affect the 2/3 shift I believe.

You need a pocket size screwdriver.

Turn clockwise to get it shift SOONER
Counter-clockwise to get it to shift LATER

I believe that you have that backwards, mine have always been clockwise= later
Counterclockwise= sooner shifts.
