On a automatic i can put car in 1st thru drive and have all the power i need 91 cadillac deville fuel inj

Question

but when i go from drive it looses power and bogs down right around 2 gear

Answer 1

THE TRANSMISSIONS IN THESE CADDY'S  HAVE A BAD PROBLEM WITH SHIFT SOLENOID, WHAT IT DOES IS ACTUALLY PUTS THE TRANSMISSION IN FIRST GEAR,, TO CHECK THIS, IF IT IS A 3SPD TRANS, IT SHOULD SHIFT 2 TIMES,, IF A 4 SPD TRANS IT WILL SHIFT 3 TIMES,, FROM A DEAD STOP PUT IT IN DRIVE AND COUNT HOW MANY TIMES IT SHIFTS,, , LOOK AT THE GEAR SELECTOR 3PD TRANS WILL SAY,1.2.D.. IF A 4 SPD  1.2.D, THAN OVER DRIVE,, . IF IT DOES NOT SHIFT THE CORECT AMOUNT OF TIMES . THEN THE SHIFT SELONOID IS BAD,,  IF THIS CAR HAS A HYDROLIC TRANS, THEN I RECOMEND ADJ THE DETENT CABLE,,, I ALSO RECOMED TAKING IT TO A SHOP TO HAVE THIS DONE,, DO NOT ATEMPT TO DO THIS YOURSELF AS IF IT WILL BURN YOUR TRANMISION OUT IF THE ADJUSMENT IS WRONG
