I have a 1992 ford Tempo 4 cyl. About two weeks ago I started noticing that the car would jerk when stopped at a stop light. Then it would hesistate as I accelerated. It also took a longer time to switch to the second gear. I changed the Transmission fluid, put in shifting and shudder protection fluid and changed the transmission filter to no avail. Is there anything else that I might need to do or are my worst fears correct; the transmission is going and needs to be replaced. the car has 69352 miles on it.l Any help that could be provided would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

What you're describing may be engine related, rather than transmission related. Late upshifts occur if the engine isn't running right and is putting out less power than normal.
