Unhappy Transmission

I have a 1977 Ford F-250 SuperCab with an automatic transmission and a 460 engine that has 460,000 miles on it. It was cold. I had just started driving. I came to a stop light. When I stepped on the gas the truck went no where. I stepped on the gas again and the truck moved like normal. It didn't lurch forward or anything. It did this three times but now it has not done it for several months. All three times were when I had just started it. It wasn't cold every time. Is this something to worry about?

Not sure, but maybe a shifter linkage issue/broken motor mounts. What did you find out, or did you just get rid of the truck?

Did it rev up or try and die out. If it revved up it sounds like the torque converter is filling slow????

Hey amish, You might get a better response posting in threads that are not 7 years old.
