97 cruiser, 240K.

Thoughts on culprit:
Symptoms:
- From a start in 1st or 2nd gear the vehicle fails to move forward from a stop until 1 to 3 seconds. It doesn't do it every time.
- If you push on the gas a little harder it appears to take 2 to 4 seconds before it moves forward, same in 1st or 2nd gear.
- If you push very lightly on the gas, it often times goes forward in 1st or 2nd without issue. Occasionally it will take 1 to 2 seconds.
- Knuckle rebuild in the last 90 days, occurred before and after.
- Drive shafts lubed well 6 months ago and seemed to make it better, but not sold on that.
Thoughts on culprit:
- I'm leaning towards transmission but that seems like it's a rare occasion when these go bad.
- Torque converter?
- Drive shafts? They could be original, at best they are at least 60K on them.
- Transmission solenoids?
