1. When I start from a stop at normal speed or slowly, I only count three gears
- i.e. - seems to start in second.
2. When I floor it from a dead stop, I get 4 gears.
Is this right?
Thanks!

Doesn't sound good, Chris. I'll spare you the tears when that transmission
grenades by taking the car off your hands for $50. Act quickly, as my schedule
is filling up quick! ;-)
And in case your sarcasm detector is broken: whit you've described is perfectly
normal.
