I'm no pro so, please excuse me .It sounds funny but the function of the transmission has little to do with the engine starting or timing of sparks. Check trans fluid if you haven't already. Take to [aamco,ect.] for free check -up...to get better understanding of things.

look up the engine cylinder numbers, then look at the front of your engine, or on the intake manifold. There will be a series of raised numbers, (you may have to clean off some grease), this is your timing order. Make sure you have the correct sparkplug wires going to the correct plug from your distributor.(make sure your distributor is mounted correctly) Jody
