Yeah...but when's the last time a dealer installed a good shift kit...that's
doesn't "void" the warranty. ;)

I was thinking TV cable but your symptoms seem more erratic than that. The
first thing you should do is check your fluid level because that can cause
all kinds of symptoms.

Second, check your governor valve. It could be sticking.

Last but not least, torque converter sounds more like your symptoms. Check
your lockup solenoid including the relay and wiring making sure there are no
shorts.

This is one reason why I never mess with my tranny. The complexity of the
thing overwhelms me quickly. I find its cheaper in the long run to bring it
to the dealer. I'm not doubting your mechanical abilities, just mine.

HTH,
Ron
