no turbo for sure. what are the specs on your tranny? is it all stock. is this at a low speed or highway? when my TC went out it was chattery as hell but didnt hunt for gears much

You can replace the tps with a potientiometer (may not be spelled right) and it will make the tranny go into od and lockup at a set speed. About a 3 to 10 dollar fix from radio shack.
