88 Auto Tranny Slow to Shift out of 1st

The automatic tranny on my son’s 1988 9000 will not shift out of first when cold. Sometimes you have to go 1/3 to 2/3 miles to get it warmed up enough to shift. Once it does, it shifts fine. However, there is a very brief but noticeable shudder when you come to a full stop. Yesterday, I took it for a test drive and after a 1/4 mile it started shifting and ran well. Then, about 3 miles later, I tried to back up and it would not engage Reverse. We pushed it about 3 feet and it started working and has worked since. Any thoughts? The car has 90,000 miles on it and had suffered a fluid exchange when the ATF fluid cooling line broke in the radiator.
