When I start my bronco the idle starts and stays at nearly 2000 rpms when I put it in gear the rpms will drop below 500 and the engine will shut off or it will drop down and then go right back up to 8 or 900 rpms. When I'm driving I never start in 1st gear always 2nd when i get up to 15-20 mph it shifts from 2nd to 3rd it will no go over 2000 rpms when it shifts from 2nd to 3rd. I can put manually put it in first and it drives fine. I can shift through all of the gears manully but if I just put it in drive it always starts out in second. I changed the vacuum modulator I've been told to look at the kickdown cable or to clean the governor and the valve body. I have no idea where the governor is located and I wanted some good advice before i started spending money.
