Background of last week (may or may not be relevant): I bought 9 quarts of oil, a filter and fuel filter. I come home to change the oil. My extraction pump fails. I don't have any way (or desire) to lift the car and get under it to change the oil. I take the car to a quick lube owned by a friend. They change the oil and fuel filters. They over-filled the oil (which I rectified) and didn't tighten the primary fuel filter properly, so the car gushed fuel until I got it back and fixed that problem. They issued a 'checklist' stating that they had checked all of the fluids......including the transmission.

This week, after idle, the car will inconsistenly rev without the transmission engaging on some take offs. You let of the accelerator and get the rpms down and it will engage, but then, it won't shift out of first gear. If you let off, get on a few cycles, it goes back to normal. No indicator lights, and once engaged, the transmission feels fine.

Give it to me straight guys--anyone know what is wrong?

Thanks in advance.
