With the help of you guys I have figured out my kickdown problems and have the trans shifting 1,2,3. Now on to my new problem. If I drive the car enough to get the trans good and warm and park for 5 to 10 minutes the transmission once again doesnt want to shift to 3rd gear. If I let it sit ubtill it cools down it shifts ok. The weird part is as long as im driving the trans will continue to shift ok as long as you want. Problem only occurs when you shut the car down for a few minutes then take off again. any ideas?

The problem is probably a sticky governor valve or shift valve. The only way to know for sure is to install a gauge in the governor test port.
Are you sure the balky takeoff and no 3rd gear aren't actually caused by it taking off in 2nd? Next time it acts up try shifting manually.
