I am pretty sure the gearbox is changing up as I tried changing down to 2 and 1 and there was a noticeable difference.

As for the rev counter, I am fairly confident that the revs were too high because the engine cut out when it went over the 5,000 line but started again when I used the starter after I had stopped.

Automatic gearboxes are a bit of a mystery to me but could it be slipping or something? If so are there adjustments that might be made?
