1994 Voyager 3 liter pressure regulator - dealer for tran sw upgrade

Just wonder. Pressure regulator for a van hard to start.
Once running,it's fine, so can't see the fuel pump being
the culprit. One of the mechanics here suggested the
pressure regulator.

Also, saw don't take a tranny to a dealer if out of warranty.
But who else can upgrade the TCM transmission control module
to the latest software for teh A-604 so the torque converter
does not have to work so hard and self-destruct with the
37 mph shudder?

Not many tranny places where I live and Cottman did not seem
to know about the sw upgrade. They rebuilt the tranny for
the previous owner and that person was not satisfied
with the original rebuild for $2000 and another $700 for
more stuff six months later. Probably better to get a rebuilt
from Jasper that is close to being remanufactured in a way?

Not satisfied with Cottman's!! What a shock to hear such a statement...
NOT!!
I would not let them work on the Shimano shifter on my kids bike after the
crap they did to my oldest sons car. 3 trips back and never got it right. To
top it off they dented and scratched the side of the car on the 3rd trip and
insisted it was that way when they got it ( Even though they gad blue paint
that matched his car on the jam of there garage door and red paint matching
the jam on his car). Guess the morons can't drive either.
