Transmission Problem Found (sorta)

Well... after talking to TransGO yesterday for quite a while... I was told
to get some pressure tests off of the GOV. side of the tranny at the 1-2
shiftpoint (since that is where I am having trouble) when I have the cable
adjusted correctly, and when I have it so it will shift correctly at WOT...
Initial readings were 65-70PSI during the 1-2 shift while shifting properly
we then changed to cable to the "normal" position (factory)
First two times 1-2 shifted great and saw same pressure
When it did stumble/hit the rev-limiter (stock puter) we only saw 55-60 PSI
This means that one of 2 things are bad... the Gov. Soleniod or the
Transducer...
I've heard of the Solenoid has gone bad in several daks... does this sound
like another case?
