Strange Hesitation After Heavy Stop/decleration

When ever i make a hard stop or decelerate quickly i get this strange hesitation/loss of power feeling for a second or two. I just did the motor mounts today thinking that may have been it, but nope. It almost feels like the trans doesn't know what gear to go into or something.

Its a 95 855 T5 Auto.

Any input is appreciated.

Check your transmission fluid level, sounds like low fluid to me. Note that when checking the transmission fluid level, the "Cold" section on the dipstick is for after 15 minutes of idling from a cold start and the "Hot" section is for after at least 30 minutes of highway driving.

Does it feel like a engine hesitation? or a tranny hesitation.

Vaccum leaks can cause engines to hesitate under WOT.

edit: WOW im dumb, i read the tittle as "heavy acceleration" ignore this
