I have a 89 Chevy 2500 with a 350 it jerks when it goes into overdrive it drives fine in other gears also idles really low has new plugs and wire's anyone have any ideas of what could be causing this
 
Faulty tps sensor possibly!? Trans been worked on before if not It may need some tLc? My 79,82, and 94 jerk but I like to think it's my trans way of being the boss and slamming itself into gear with authority...
 
Alright still having problems I clean the throttle body and replaced the gear on the distributer and nothing still the same thing happening any thing else that could cause this
 
When you say "jerking", is it jerking once while going into overdrive, or is it jerking/surging constantly while it's in overdrive?
 
Does it matter howfast you're going?
 
I've never liked the way a 4 speed GM automatic felt when the converter clutch locked in OD gear. Never really figured out what caused it.
 
I had 6.0 that I thought had a transmission problem but it was misfiring due to a bad crank sensor
