Noobish trans thread

Hey guys, I recently got the SVX I bought for the 24hrs of Lemons race up and running (after re-installing the steering rack, amongst other things). When I drive around in drive it pulls fine (no slips), but when I let out of the throttle, it goes into neutral. I give it gas and it revs freely (in drive). It will then engage into gear on its own, and I can drive fine for a little while longer. Also, if I put it into 1st and second the trans works fine, no issues at all. Any ideas? I noticed the speedometer isnt working (are these trans dependent on any sort of speed-sensor input?) also clicking the manual button on the shifter causes no change.

car is a 92 LSL with 110k miles, Im going to service the trans next week ( i was going to anyway, just to prolong the inevitable).

closest thing I could find in the search was this:

its close, but mine is not stalling

edit: I am reading more that if the thing behind the batt is unplugged something like this could happen, I will check that out in the morning.
