Post #1 issue was probably a stuck 1-2 accumulator regulator valve. This causes a no 1-2 shift or a direct bypass of 2nd and goes 1-3. Notice, these are his exact symptoms as noted in post #1.

Post #21 issue was a stuck solenoid regulator valve. - Since we know he had 12v power to the solenoids (and since he just said it was a stuck valve issue.) Note! It's important not to jump to this, as a no electrical power issue, shows the same exact symptoms, and 99.9% of the time, this is will be an electrical issue; trans not getting power, rather than this valve sticking.
