I'm really not sure what you're trying to tell me. Has this been a problem since the day you changed the fluid? Please advise.

OK, now I think I understand. It sounds to me like your shift cable from the console shifter to the trans axle. I doubt if having the trans serviced would have had anything to do with it. Check the movement of the cable at the transaxle to see if it's smooth. The problem may also be in the console.

Yes, entirely possible. Be sure you check all electrical connections at the distributor before we condemn the coil.
