This thing is scaring the poop outa me at certain speeds. Read some writes ups and only concluded what it couldn't be. Heres the scenario at certain speeds like 55, 62ish and maybey going 45 down hill or any speed going down hill above 30 my tranny will down shift and upshift continually untill I slam on the gas it will then down shift untill I get up to an adequate speed for it to properly shift into correct gear. Going from this youd think the tps is in need of replacment but the other problem im having is the harsh shifting into 2nd and reverse only but if I let off the gas to just the right position before going into second it will shift smoothly.I have a reciept from some mechanic in san jose his writting is hard to read but it looks like 3 years ago the clutch hub, tourque converter and "clutches 4 plates" ? were replaced along with the gaskets. So we know it cant be any of those unless he did a bad job. The tranny fluid looks kinda brown so most likely that hasn't been replaced for 3 years because there's no reciept for that. I just purchased this rig and the previous owner was a real doush he paid $1300 to put a new muffler cat and used ex. manifold in. Its a 87 laredo w/ a d44 and i think a np242 if that helps any.
