Default Auto Trans 1995 GT No first Gear

I got this 1995 GT 5.0 with Auto trans, has overdrive, it works except for first gear.

First gear only works when the trans is dead cold, it will auto into first gear from DRIVE, and I can select first gear manually. If I select first manually I can then drive 5000 rpm for 6 miles no problem, but if i shift out I cant get back.

If I shift into first after it warms up, the car binds up, tries to move forward and stops and when I release the gas it lurches forward a little on return to idle.

It drive fine all day in DRIVE, but uses second gear from dead stop, never tries to use first.

Flushed trans and drove around, no difference, changing filter now (jiffy lube doesnt change filters when they flush)

Anyone else has this happen ?

Other than the first gear issue, engine and trans are solid and drive fine, including all other gears , reverse and OD.

Thanks
