Re: Removing Ultramatic Governors - Special Tool?

All you need is an allen wrench to get them out, and you don't need to remove the tailshaft.

For very late shifting, look for:

flyweight has fallen off the low speed governor.

One of the endcaps has fallen out of the shifter detents. The detents will feel very vague if this is so.

Improper assembly of the low-high shift valve. There is a little sheet metal spring seat at one end of one of the bores and that can get trapped under the end plate. You lose governor pressure which raises the shift point drastically.
