The car moves fine. But it shifts at too low of rpm even when it's floored, and i was wondering if anybody knows how to adjust when it shifts??? If you have any information about how to do this PLEASE tell me, it'll be greatly appreciated.[img:83073bffc3]http://www.2carpros.com/forum/automotive_pictures/345457_The_cavy_1.jpg[/img:83073bffc3]

Check your TV (Throttle Valve) cable, it may be broke/binding/out of adjustment. Depending on engine they look like this:
