Well... I don't know how to fix it and I do at the same time.

I was just coming home from the lakefront and on I10 playing with this ecsb silverado. He was speeding,swerving, almost hit a few cars. As he made his way and opened a path I got behind and punched it at 60 and I watched the tach for some reason or another (i never do.) It usually shoots up about 5200 and grabs, well it was more like 5700 and wasn't grabbing so immediately I backed off.

I returned to a 70mph cruise @2300rpm, and once the speedlimit dropped to 60, (again following that truck, clear path) I moved over along side of him and was gona signal to race and his crazy *** girlfreind stuck her head out the window and had something looked like a gun in her hand, cursing like mad. I backed off and hit the brakes dropping me to 60 and I said **** it and floored it, well it shot up to 5200 grabed and for the first time it felt like when it grabbed it slung shot me past that guy.

I dunno, when I experienced it, I shut off before it bounced. Maybe I'd been pushing the trans a little on the hard side and should've been more gentle. after about 5minutes experience of this I guess it was the ''cool down'' cruising speed it worked perfectly again.

Didn't mean to go , just wanted to let you know I experienced it too. I jsut shut off before it started bouncing.

When you figure it out, post it up. I just replaced my 65E today for the exact same problem.
