First, I would check back with the seller for clarification. It is possible that the transmission has been modified with a manual valve body. In this case, it is working exactly as it should. A manual valve body essentially converts the tranny into a clutchless manual transmission. So basically, have the seller confirm whether it is a problem, or a modification, and then let us know.
