1. slams from 1st to 2nd

3. when cold and first putting it into drive it jumps and stalls..
Might be a little low on fluid... have you checked it??

If the fluid is good, the slam from 1-2 usually means the shift resistor is giving you trouble. When you start the car does the atf temp light flash like the power light in the SVX??
