Of course I've been told that soft peddling the 200R is a bad thing. But there are times when one has to roll out of it for a variety of reasons.

Conventional wisdom has been that one needs to go WOT to maintain line pressure during any blasts but a link to the Bowtie Overdrives website on another thread about TV cable adjustment has me wondering?

The pull quote is highlighted in the text:

The sole purpose of the TV valve is to direct TV Feed fluid into the orifice shown with the red circle. The volume and pressure of this TV Feed fluid, being directed into this passage, will progressively increase, as the accelerator pedal is being depressed.This increasing TV feed volume and pressure entering into this feed passage is directed to all of the transmissions pressure regulating and shift control circuits.This increase in volume and pressure is not designed to increase in a progressive straight line; it's heavily biased towards increasing pressure and volume more rapidly during the initial movement of the Throttle valve and to have delivered its full influence by slightly over half throttle opening. This feature works hand and glove with the transmissions pressure boost system (controlled by the line bias valve) to more closely match increases in engine torque.


So...does this mean that I'm doing little or no harm by soft peddling up at half or 3/4 pedal?

The TV cable in a properly setup 200 will keep the line pressure where it should be compared to the throttle angle. There should be no issue going part throttle, it won't hurt a thing imo.
