Default 97 Volvo 850 GLT Automatic Transmission Problems.Help.

I just acquired a 1997 Volvo 850 GLT SW. The Automatic Transmission shifts well at normal acceleration. If you go into passing gear, the tramsission will not change in a timely manner unless you let off and then it changes with a hard jerk. The car appears to be holding back when you start off quickly or hit passing gear. May not be a Transmission problem. Any ideas? Thanks, Ron

Sounds like it might be misfiring. Any codes on the ECM?
