I just want to thank everyone who helped me with problems I was having with
slow acceleration.  I have also been having problems shifting into 1st gear.
It isn't too much of a problem until I drive for about 30 minutes.  The only
way I can get into first gear is to shift the stick into 2, 3rd & 4th before
trying to put it into 1st gear again.  Sometimes this works & other times I
just have to keep moving the stick until it decides to pop into 1st.  Needless
to say, it is driving me & everyone behind me at a stoplight, crazy!!!  I'm
sure it is in the transaxle & will cost a fortune to fix as does everything
else on the beast.  But I love her so & want her well!!!  Any suggestions will
be greatly appreciated.                               Lonnie
