maby that is why it was in the junkyard. junkyard engines and trans are considered cores for rebuilding unless gaurenteed, which most yards do with worthy engines/ trans. but to answer your question, it could be that the trans needs a rebuild, could be an ajustment, governer, kick down or shift modulator.

what do u mean by "jumping" into 2nd gear?? is it full of fluid? a th350 from empty will hold anywhere from 10 1/2 to 12 qts of fluid from bone dry. do u know how many miles r on the unit u installed? how is the engagement into reverse or drive? does it have a shift kit? please help with more info so u can get a proper diagnosis..
