My Luck is sucking latley (job loss) & now my daily driver 
I have a 1996 Oldsmobile LS 88. It has been a sweet car, 115k on it. Runs perfect but I am noticing a bucking after it goes into 4th (OD Gear) at 45 MPH & trying to accel to highway speeds.
Seems like the engine is not reving enough & the car starts to buck because the rpms drop from going into 4th.
If I toss the trans shifter back up to (D) Drive from (OD), the revs come up & it accelerates with no bucking issues.
What could this be?
