Don't know for sure...plenty of experts here (not me!)...but when my '69 Country
Squire with C-6 (I think) started to do that, it was time to go in for a new one. 
That had something to do with a piston that moves back and forth according to engine
load, and determined the shift time.  Seems like Taurus ATXs crack that piston,
since it is aluminum, rather than something harder.

Get out your wallet.
