Nope, you didnt do anything... When I put in the trans kit in mine.. I
noticed where the shifter cable goes...
You couldent have done anything to affect the actual shifting in and out of
gears unless you were working ON the transmission, the only cable you messed
with is the cable that tells the tranny how much gas yer givin her....
Like what was said before, you were prolly on a slight hill....
