96 Jetta Auto Problems

When I Put It In Drive Does Not Move Or Pull Until I Get On The Gas. Also Revs Up High Then Shifts From 2nd To 3rd. Sometimes Shifts Hard Into 1st. I Have The No Dip Stick Tranny. My Luck. Is The Tranny Going Bad? Could It Be Electronic? Seems Like Shift Points Are Off If That Makes Sense. Any Help Greatly Appreciated. OH ALSO MY IGNITION WILL NOT START THE CAR. I TURN THE KEY AND NOTHING, ALL ELECTRONICS OPERATE RADIO, INSTRUMENT PANEL, ETC. I JUST HAVE A PUSH START RAN TO THE STARTER IT WORKS FINE WHEN I TURN THE CAR INTO ON POSITION. JUST THOUGHT I WOULD MENTION THIS CAUSE I KNOW THESE CARS ARE VERY DELICATE. ONE BAD CONNECTION KEEPS IT FROM RUNNING.
