You didn't mention what vehicle you have but in general the transmission vacuum modulator line goes directly to the engine intake manifold.
The THM200C does not use a vacum line. It has a cable that tells it when to shift.
it goes to the inlet manifold or to a vacum outlet on the carby (if it is not fuel injected)
there is a vacum hose that attaches to the transmission. The vacum hose comes directly from engine vacum (as all vacum hoses are) If the valve on the transmission somehow gets old and simply breaks, then a small amount can be sucked up by engine vacum down the vacum hose and into engine compartment. I thought it virtually impossible until it happened to me.
It runs to the modulator valve from the intake manifold. Its what makes an automatic trany shift thru the gears. Low vacum = quick shifts and High vacum = long between shifts.
i had the same problem it was a vacum leak under battery box you will have to take the battery and battery box out this vacum line hooks to cruise control fix the leak and it will work fine the vacum line has a curve in it to find other vacum leaks let the engine run and spray carburetor cleaner on vacum line connection
I would start by looking for worn vacum line to modulator. Or the modulator could be bad. the modulator is located on the transmission which tells the transmission to shift when the vacum pulls a diaphragm inside the modulator a certain distance. some are adjustable with a flat blade screw i believe.
check vacum line to modulator, or replace modulator
The number above the line is the numerator. The number below the line is the denominator.
is controled by vacum,,,,you need to ck thr vacum line to the shut-off seliniod
That is called a vacum modulator. It controls the transmissions upshift points at part throttle. It needs to be hooked to a source of timed vacum, usually off the distributor.
vacum hoses leaking. Trans filter and fluid ovedue for change
under the seat.
