Here are the things to look for:
Delayed/Soft Forward Engagement Fluid level and condition, shift linkage, low forward clutch pressure, low line pressure, low Electronic Pressure Control (EPC) pressure, oil filter (plugged), valve body (3-4 shift valve, main regulator valve), incorrectly tightened valve body bolts, 1-2 or 2-3 accumulator, pump assembly or forward clutch assembly.
