1997 Ford Ranger 4.0 V6 won t shift into drive after being driven. Takes longer than should to shift into drive when first started.?

It will go in reverse fine. First thing in the morning when I leave for work, it will shift into drive on it s own, but takes a bit longer than it should. After getting it warm, won t shift into drive at all. I can shift down to 1st or 2nd, then back into drive and it will "pop up" into drive within a second or 2. I also have a ODB2 error P1744 (Torque Converter circuit).

    Why don't you take it into a transmission specialist? Sounds like it needs some TLC
