I have a 98 explorer that if you accelerate hard from a stop (i.e. pulling out into traffic) it starts to move then sometimes there is a slight hesitation before it gets going. It could be very dangerous. Anyone got any ideas or have had this happen to them?
i talked to my technician friend and he says they have had a few cases where the engine revs slightly and then the trans drops into gear.
he said the cause is the valve body gasket and he has replaced several of them recently.
