>could be the seal under the kick down lever... comes right off and will go right back on with out adjusting anything.(should be able to leave the rod attached.loosen the the 3/8 or 7/19 head bolt may have to use a screw driver to help raise up on it to pop it up.once that is off there is a seal that press down over the kick down shaft.
