Tried googling this and results are skewed by millions of shop FAQ type articles.
So this is an old 1996 Dodge 4x4 that's destined to go down to fish camp to eventually rust out and die (sad face). So I don't really care about the problem itself as long as it's not gonna blow out and quit on me down there.
This truck when we put it in drive and ease on the gas it takes a second and revs up then pops into gear, once in gear it drives fine even up to highway speeds with no noticable issues unless we stop at a light or stop sign then it revs and pops in gear and goes.
I'm looking for the most likely issue as it's not worth paying a transmission shop to diagnose and if the most likely issue is something that'll slowly or rapidly get worse. It's a good truck other than this issue and missing header bolts.
