More urgent for this answer than my other thread

Been having codes 136 lean and during engine running test code 512. Some said it was because I disconnected the battery to clear codes.
I did a bunch of reading on koeo and koer test and performed both and got same results as before.
Went for a drive and now it will only run in first gear. I can manually take off and shift to second but no third or fourth.
Shifting was perfect yesterday and half of today.
Any help greatly appreciated.

Ok I overreacted....hose came of trans modulator valve. I replaced it yesterday and new I should have put a new hose but only cut the soft end off making it too short 🤭
 
If the hose softened up it usually means the modulator is leaking fluid into it. It also means you need to replace the hose at the engine end,too.

I checked it the other day when 2nd was shifting a little hard. Fluid ran out of the house and valve. I replaced it and solved the hard shift. I'll replace both hoses and thanks for the advice.
 
Trans still had an occasional hard shift into second and a little jolt when taking off in first. My vacuum modulator on trans has a screw with Allen head for adjustment. I turned screw in an 1/8th turn at a time. In total a 1/2 turn got rid of initial first gear slack feeling and now shifts smooth whether light throttle or punching it.
