93 aod problems, help please!

hey guys, I have a 93 lx with a 5.0 aod. the darn thing has gotten to where it will not up shift unless i go thru a list of things.
first you have to be aroung 4000 to 4400 rpm
second you have to take it from OD to neutral and back to OD
it will then be in the next gear. but from 2nd to 3rd it may take it a few times before it will shift.
it down shifts like a dream.. also it goes into gear just fine. at this point i am about to give up... :shrug:
thanks for any help gents

My brother in law, tranny mech, is rebuilding my trans as we speak. He cleaned out my Governor, which is located in the tail shaft I believe, and told me that's what's responsible for the upshifts. If the shift rod thing in it gets gummed up, you'll have problems with the upshifts. That's my guess, but I know nothing of the internals of the trans... that's his job, and as long as he does it right, I don't care if he explains what things are to me or not. :) I'd try that.
