FIPL adjustment

Hello. My FIPL (grayish in color, so I don't thinks its original) will only achieve a voltage range of 1.1-3.5...instead of 3.8v. Now, should I keep the idle setting at the recommended 1.1 or move it so the W.O.T setting is the recommended 3.8 instead of 3.5, and therefore having the idle voltage at 1.4?
Does increase or decrease voltage raise the shift points?
I am going to be doing a lot of moderate towing the next little while, and would like to adjust to maybe increase shift points and possibly firm up the shifts a bit by doing so...basically trying to be easy on the trans.
My torque converter is acting up and is haunting between being locked and unlocked until enough speed is gained as it attempts to lock when in 3rd..Im hoping that if I raise the shift points that it will hide this problem until I have time to deal with it.
