odd rev between gears (auto)

when it tries to change gears it revs and bogs a bit and then shifts ..... I am thinking fuel filter but just in case I need anything else I am posting (87 rx-7 non turbo automatic)

^ it is an automatic.

Pull the tranny dipstick. How does the fluid look? Does it smell burnt in any way?

eh when I got the car the girl hadn't put any fluid in it so it was below dipstick level.... I filled it and the thing ran better but now (after I changed the plugs too) it's doing the rev. I am thinking now that maybe the girl ran it with low fluid and I just mixed new with cruddy stuff and should change it...

Sorry it takes me a while to respond back to my topic this site takes forever to load for me but it's the only good rx-7 forum I could find lol
