They call it morning sickness.

usally caused by pump bushing clearance. The converter leaks down while it sits unused.

Since a TF doesn't have line pressure in park, you are waiting for the converter to fill up when you shift it into gear.

As suggested earlier, it should improve if you warm the car up in neutral, instead of park.




I brought this up with my tranny guy and he looked at me like I was nuts.. So I started my fresh engine/727 in park and it worked great.. I think this is an old wives tail about having to be in neutral for the pump to work....
