Accelerate slowly with the vehicle in a higher gear
First, I would have your transmission checked. It sounds like the transmission is starting to go. I would rule this out first. Also, you could check the level of your transmission fluid, If it gets too low, it will make it start to slip, if it is low, check for a leak! Hope this is helpful!
Its overfilled and the pressure of the overfill is actually causing the fluid to come out of the fill tube when cold starting. Suck some out from the fill tube. Very sensitive to fluid volume.
NO. Your transmission leak has nothing to do with hard starting. Have you replaced the spark plugs & plug wires?
check your transmission
