Definitaly fix the 02 wires, that will cause all sorts of problems, check tranny fluid. Could also be the tps as previously stated. Also shifting it manually is a good idea to try to.

I checked trans fluid yesterday and it was dead on full and didnt smell "burnt". Like i said about the o2 wires... They have been that way since i bought it (i kno they still need to be fixed) and have never had ANY problems. So y now??
