So i drive a 93 xlt its all stock only 101,000miles, I hopped on county highway in front of a semi coming faster than expected so i got on my gas pretty heavy. usually the rpms will get going when i punch on it but this time the rpms kind of just took their time climbing. it didnt matter if i pushed down any harder they were just going up at their own slow steady pace and i have noticed this happens quite frequently. its usually 50/50, speaking about when i punch the pedal the truck will either seem like it has more power on the acceleration and climb through the gears easily or it will kind of "lag" up to speed as i just mentioned before. but this time is now different. after i punched it in front of the semi and came to a stop-sign, i noticed a vibration when i took off (almost like i was going 5mph over rumble strips or it almost felt like the car was going to stall) This goes away after 5-10 mph and the car drives and shifts fine after that. I've also come to notice now that when idling the car rumbles a tad bit like its off timing and also my reverse gear does the same vibration as accelerating causes. I'm guessing it could be a transmission problem. If anyone who knows about this kind of stuff could help with some info/troubleshooting it would be very appreciated.
