ohh! GOOD QUESTION!
Shlomo does this too!
It seems like the engine just gets absolutely no fuel and the car just crawwwwwwwwls up a hill, but *only* if you fully stop on a fairly steep incline. It slows down so much sometimes, that if I have to cross traffic and go when no cars are in sight-- I almost get hit by people on both sides. It could take a good 20-30 seconds to 'ramp up' to a full roll.
So much so, that I have found every alternate route to every destination traveled, *without* stops facing up a hill. Hard to do in Alabama..
I know my car engages 1st because I can feel the little thump when it does. It has stopped that 1st gear funniness, by the way. Cleared up on its own, apparently.
The linkages are fine on mine, but the initial poster may wish to check that his are adjusted?
