75 ford auto C-6 trans. unecessarily kicks down on small upgrades or slight acceleration. It has the right idea just a bit sensitive. any ideas on why and possible solutions.
Thanks

The vacuum modulator needs adjusting to shift later.

Remove the vacuum hose to it and insert a small flat screwdriver into the outlet and adjust the screw.

I think Turning it in (clockwise) will advance the shift.

Moved to proper forum.

An engine out of tune or a vacuum leak in the line to the modulator can also cause this problem.
