Ok, rebuilt the tranny installed it and drove it. Shifted great but leaked like crazy. Took it out fixed the leak and put it back in. Now I can't get it to shift into 3rd gear. I torqued the band adjuster to 10flbs and backed off 1 1/2 turns. No Third. Should I tighten the adjuster or loosen it to try and get it to shift into 3rd gear?
