C6 TC fill time?

Usually after the truck has been sitting for a few hours and go to drive, it seems like it does not fill the TC with fluid immediately. If I put the truck in gear right after i start it, I have to give it a fair amount of throttle before it will move. If I let the truck idle for about 30-40 seconds before I go in gear it is fine. Is this normal?

Nope. Try draining the TC if it has a drain plug, you should get about a gallon out of it.
Rotate the engine until the plug is at the bottom. That would check if the TC is draining back.

This is a E4OD pump but is similar to a C6, the green ring is a teflon seal.
