96 850 transmission shifting up and down between 2nd and 3rd

While driving, transmission shifts fine. But after warming and driving between 35 and 45 mph transmission shifts back and forth between 2nd and 3rd gear and seems to be searching for the correct gear. No codes. Any ideas?

Thanks VCA for your assistance. I will check the injectors.
Would the cam sensor cause this problem?

I did check the fuses and all okay

Disconnecting the maf made no difference.

While I'm pretty mechanical-- How do you check the injectors?

Thanks

Re: 850 threw codes 300 303 304 305 the quit running

Thanks for the reply. Ihave replaced the dist cap and rotor. There is spark and checked fuel at rail valve and have good fuel pressure.

When you turn the key-- engine turns over but acts like no spark or fuel.

Any other ideas?

loss of a/c under acceleration, doesn't come back until v

The a/c works fine as ...
