performance problem?

i have a 94 GA automatic. im noticeing that when i put my foot on the gas it jerks slightly until it "catches". i used to think it was the timming but i had that adjusted. it generally only does it around 60 mph. any ideas as to what it might be? also wanna thanks for all of you for being here. this is an awsome place!

how many miles on this GA groomer919?
It sounds like you trany's acting up, though I might be wrong.
Has the transmission fluid/filter ever been changed? Thats what I'd say it is , if its the original fluid and filter.

Also, check the fluid level first, maybe its just low. Good Hunting

You mean 110,000 miles? Not 11000? Just curious.
