Skip Shift in 6 Speeds

I know that GM put the SKip shifts in the 94 LT1 6 Speeds but did they put it in any other years. If so which ones and how do you get it off?

it was put in 94-2002. you can get it off by going to radio shack and buying a resistor and place it in the plug. Im not exactly sure on which resistor, maybe someone will chime in and tell.

So the put them into 97 Formula firebirds. How hard is it to put the thing to stop the shift skip and how much.

You can also buy a pre-made part from various vendors for less than $15 last I checked. It's about the easiest mod you will ever do and never look back

Yeah its a very easy fix. I bought mine from summit. Pretty cheap. The skip shift light is still there but i don't even notice it anymore.

You pull the harness plug off the skip shift solenoid, and insert a 2.2Kohm, 1/2 watt resistor in the harness plug, tape it up. Finished.
