To make the transmission more 'positive' on hills you need to turn the charge pressure up. Remove the tamper-proof cap at the bottom, right side of the tranny and turn the allen screw in a turn or 2 until it is at the desired positivity.
Yes. Measure the charge pressure. The higher it is, the more 'positive' the tranny will be. If you have it up around 120psi it will really pull the engine down on hills.
