So I completed my swap and took it out for a test drive last night. I have the a4ld auto trans. When it was all set up in the donor truck, it ran great. Now it shifts really sloppy. The kickdown cable seems too loose since it doesn't even move when the gas pedal is fully down. I tried the self adjusting thing and it barely makes contact. Could that be the cause of the poor shifting? I have to rev the engine up before it engages the gear.
Also there is a tube getting a lot of suction on the back of the engine (pictured below) but I can't figure out what was supposed to plug on it. Idles rough until I plug it. Also backfires a lot when I accelerate.
