Hi thi may be a vacum leak in one of the tiny hoses or lines at the engine ,if you dont have a vacum gage you can run a simple test by gently spay some carb cleaner spray close to the lines and air hoses with the engine runing, if you notice the rpms going high there is the problem.

Transmission will not shift out of 1st gear.

Check your transmission fluid level. If the filter has never been changed, now is a good time to replace the fluid and filter.

Check for a vaccum leak at the intake. With the engine at idle spray a bit of starting fluid to find it. You will hear the engine pick-up when you hit the spot. Change the necessary gasket. Hopefully this will solve your prob! Frankster016
