No, the problem appeared right after the transmission was replaced, and never happened before.

There is an update: Timinig is not determined to be 20 degrees ATDC, way off. I suspect the flywheel was reinstalled incorrectly after the main seal was replaced, though the mechanic said it was virtually impossible to mis-align the flywheel because of a notch that needs to be matched up with it. But he is willing to pull the tranny to check it out...
