The problem seems to be the torque converter engaging/disengaging, repeatedly every 3 to 7 seconds, under steady throttle, going between 35 and 42 mph. It will start the engaging/disengaging "hickups". when this happens, it feels like the engine is missing, or a feeling of it having the "hickups" or "jerking", worse upon an incline in the road.
