The tranny in my pickup does some weird things.First is from a dead stop,99% of the time it'll take off in second gear making for a long period of time before it gets up to speed.Im sure this also not too good for gas mileage.Also im not sure if it's related but sometimes along with the above problem the accelerator will stick and wont shift until i push down hard through the sticking point.Any ideas on this would be great.Thanx

You need to have the kick down linkage checked. Something may have come apart inside the trans or with the linkage. Keep in mind, it could be a shift solenoid. Has the check engine light ever come on?
