Transmission Issues? Slipping?
I have a 97 SE auto and i have noticed that under heavy acceleration or load the car will act a little funny. Engine speeds does not seem to increase steadily in the 3500-5500 RPM range. It is hard to describe what it does but it is not a rough jerking, more of just an unsteady acceleration. My first thought was the transmission was slipping but then one day i threw a code and turned out to be a misfire. Could a slipping transmission cause a misfire? This has happen a couple of times but only threw the code once. Anyone else have this issue or have any advice? Transmission fluid is nice and red and at a good level.

I don't know why I had the misfire code, it only happened once. I know to get the engine light it must misfire 3 times but I've been watching the pending code and haven't seen any misfires, even after I see the acceleration issues.

Check the freeze data for the code. check compression and spark too.
