If the transmision cableis not adjusted right you will get messed up shifts.The cable adjusts line pressure in the transmision.Don't mess with it yourself a pro needs to do it.Don't drive it that way you will burn the trany up.A misadjusted cable can burn a trany up in less then a mile.Go to trany shop right away.
