"pop 'n drop" tranny issue

The car has had a chunky 4th gear since Ive owned it. I had the driveshaft center bearing replaced along with the rear tranny mount. It smoothed out a bit, I did a valve adj. better. Now, If I am not stuffing the pedal, she pops n drops into 4th all day. Its quite annoying and I dont want to ruin the new parts that just went in.
I suspect a vac leak because at WOT shifting is smooth- if I am accelerating gently, Its like driving a jalopy, not a Benz. Vac. modulator? I dont know.
Any suggestions on where to start?
I just purchased a vac. gauge- but Ive never used one.
Thanks
Ben
