gas in my car, and when I took off it has a hard time shifting to another gear (automatic). It feels like its bouncing everytime I step on the gas...not like hydralics. Could it be my sensor? Thanks a bunch...! Its a Honda Civic

It sounds like bad fuel. You may have gotten some gas with water in it and it will plug or at least not go through the fuel filter well and will cause the exact symptom you are describing.
How much fuel did you put in ? How full is the tank now ?
You can pick up an additive from the auto parts store such as "HEAT" or any other product made for fuel systems to displace water. These products are made for this exact problem.
I would suggest using the product exactly as the directions say and then top off the tank with good fuel. That should take care of the problem.

What year is the Car?.. How many miles. How much gas did you put into the tank? Is this a reputable fuel station? What is the level of trans fluid and condition? I am thinking that you may have some bad gas (water in the tank) that could be causing a problem with the running of the engine. If this is the case.. Where are you located in the country because water will condense with the heating and cooling of the gas station fuel tanks. You could have a load of water..Still many questions to ask on this. DON M

check the tranny fluid. I would have a code scanner put on the car and see if it is throwing any kind of codes to let you know what might be wrong.

depends on the mileage, and the condition of the trans oil,you will have to get it checked out
