Thanks Greg H and Hotrod Lincoln. I live in Western Washington and have lots of hills, Mt. Rainier being our biggest..!
I've noticed both situations that you describe; rapid upshift to 4th gear if I'm in 1-4 and definite lack of downshift unless I give it a goose with the accelerator or come to a complete stop. I don't like goosing it though. So far I've compensated by driving in town in 1-3 (effectively cutting off 4th gear).
Is the throttle pressure adjustment difficult to do (other than requiring a lot of sequential adjustments)? I'm a newbie and appreciate any advice.
