How's the fluid smell? Could just be the MLPS. I think that stands for Mechanical Lever Position Sensor, but not 100% sure. I know alot of guys have problems with the sensor that tells the computer what gear it's in.

No it doesn't over rev, it sort of jumps into gear and kinda bucks...feels like its 'bouncing'.
Is it possible to test the mlps?

Sounds like it might be slipping a tad on the shift...is it kind of like a slide bang.
Probably a broken accumulator spring.
