I have a non lock up A-518 transmission and I have a lokar throttle valve cable running off of my carburetor to operate the transmission. The other day I noticed that in the first couple inches of pull on the throttle valve cable there is no resistance at all. And it never used to be this way. I have pulled the cable forward many times before and there is always some resistance when pulling the cable forward. But now there is not. Did something break in the valve body? The transmission is still shifting fine, like it always has, this transmission is fairly new, re-built in September of 2011 and it only has about 5000 miles on it.
 
I just went and checked the cable and it's not doing it now! I swear sometimes I think this thing is possessed
