E4OD Help

This is in our 90 F250 plow truck. 70k miles on it. The transmission seems fine, but it is a tad slow from reverse to drive. Not as quick as any C6 we ever had in a plow truck. Is there something that can be done or something to look for to possibly correct this? Or is it just something one has to live with.

when was it last serviced?

a complete fluid drain and new fluid/filter will do wonders.

We just bought it early last fall. Had a full service prior to the season. Fluid is full and looks very clean. We are not talking it pausing for a long time. But it isn't drop it into drive and go "now" it pauses for a second or two maybe. A C6 was about as positive as a manual trans. Am I expecting too much? Seems to me I remember the 95 F150 was annoyingly slow also now that I think about it.
