Transmission "Creeps" forward in neutral

I have a 1978 300CD that has very low miles (80K) and runs very well but the automatic transmission seems to be partially engaged when I start the car in park or neutral. I especially notice this when I start the car cold in the garage. It wants to stall so I have to rev it a bit to keep it running. When doing this it seems to want to surge forward slightly. It feels like starting a stick shift car in gear with the clutch slightly engaged.
Any thoughts for this newby? Thanks in advance
Tom
