change your tranny fluid and filter (either do-it-yourself where you only empty the pan and replace approx 20% of the fluid OR have a dealership flush the entire system and replace 100% of it). Of course, use a new filter.
More importantly, have you ever had problems with your ignition switch? Fautly switches are extremely common on 97's and can easily be mistaken for tranny problems ... do a search on this forum under "97 ignition" "97 ignition switch" etc ...

I think its my filter thats gotta be all clogged up or something, has anyone done a tranny filter change before? how many quarts of tranny oil should it take to fill it back up?
