I have a 93 chevy van, this morning I take off seems ok till I get to 15 miles per hr, auto matic transmission 4l80E starts winning out for 10 seconds more then it should, and then slaps itself into drive with force. How can I resolve this?

This sounds like the transmission went, but if you want you can try to change the transmission filter and fluid and put Lucas fix in to

The scan tool wont fix it it will tell you the problem, because my brother just had a transmission put in the first went completely then we got another and now the transmission doesn't seem like it switches gears.
