According to my sources, putting the transmission in "S" engages
the band holding 2nd gear and elevates the hydraulic pressure.
Normally in "Drive" when shifting to second, there is a sprague
that engages in the forward direction(no engine braking).
When shifting to 3rd the sprague overruns and the direct clutch
holds the input and output shaft together.
