My 94 Escort 1.9L is having some problems. Every now and then when I am at a stop sign or red light and I press the accelerator pedal to star moving it feels as if the transmission would not shift into gear or shift into neutral and then shift into gear roughly. It's like it thinks about it for a second and then it goes for it, but really rough shifting. I think it may have something to do with a bad tranny or linkage cable needs an adjustment or may be spark plugs have gone bad and they aren't firing at the correct time. Any suggestion on what to check and how to check if its a tranny problem...maybe some tips on how to adjust the cable to specs?
