The manual covers adjustment of the older transmission. It is just a matter of torqueing the screw to a certain torque (engine running for the rear band) and then backing off a certain amount of turns. It is something I'll try in 9 months when I get the tank back to here.

I ran the vehicle up this morning and both warning lamps are staying on. Before I get the pressure gauge out, I'll check the levels of both transmissions. They both leak, and the vehicle has not been fully operated in 7 years or more.
