96 downshifts to early

Guys or gals,
At highways speeds say 60 when I start accelerating the trans downshifts out of OD. I want it to stay in OD and I dont want tq to unlock either. What adjustment can I make. Thanks in advance.

That TPS may also be getting worn out, if the adjustment doesent solve your troubles PM me and i will tell you how to go about testing that TPS it is a very simple process.

Tq fixed

I fixed the tq dropping out by installing a ATS TQ COmmander that did the trick their, but problem still exists with 60mph kick down. Thanks in advance.

Look at the alternator, it sounds to me like the field wires may be bleeding voltage (RFI) into the TPS signal wire which is digital so it is very sensitive. how old is the alternator and how long has this problem been happening.
