seems to be what mine does also dodge-boy... does it worse w/ a load but also will do it just drivin down the road w/o a trailer. weather gets better and iam gonna try seperating the wires like they have been talkin about..

[dodge-boy]

I did do the tin foil wrap trick and the last time I pulled my trailer it did not seem to act up. We'll see how long or if that really helped out.

I have the goofy 1-2 shift back-n-forth at light throttle, I have a BD valve body. they told me to adjust my throttle pressure 1 1/2 turns in. I just haven't done that yet, might do it next weekend.

poor battery connections can cause a hunt too. make sure that they are clean and tight

I did the throttle adjustment and now it is shifting fine.
