Bought from my Dad low mileage, however notice when warmed up, that the
engine will try to stall if you slow down too fast.  The X-mission acts like
it does not shift down.  After sitting a while (cool down) works o.k.  Last
time we worked on this, we replaced the computer.  Fixed issue for 2 years.
It appears to have come back.  Tried a new computer, still got issue.  Any
ideas?

You did all the reasonable stuff like change the transmission fluid, of
course?

If this is a non over drive trans the tcc solenoid in the trans is bad, it
stays engaged and as you slow down the engine shudders and stalls,right?

Transmission was service 2 years ago, no leaks, low city driving mileage.
We are taking it in again, to have them look at the solenoids.  I am getting
the same kind of inputs.  I will let you now.
