Ive had a problem with my tranny shifting from 1st to 2nd for a while and in December 2nd gear finally went. Im broke I have not had the money to go into it at all and have been forced to continue driving it but I baby the hell out of it and let it shift as its ready. It will go fine from a stop through 1st and then lag out like its trying to go into second and then just drop to third. All gears work fine including reverse except 2nd gear is gone. I have to drive to at least 20mph and release the throttle for it to shift into 3rd. Fluids are fine always kept up to par. I have been told it may be the 1-2 applicator piston leaking or maybe the 2-4 servo. Anyway its got a lot of miles 160,000 so I expect it to be bad. Someone give me some insight please. No jerking no sounds from tranny whatsoever.

does 4th work? if you have 4th, its not the band

2nd apply and 4th apply on the servo for that band have different channels, so there's a slight chance you have a leak in the 2nd apply circuit, but it wouldn't be my first bet.
