Speedmoter jumps to 20 when i put truck into reverse or drive

SOUNDS LIKE A BAD SPEEDOMETER if you can use an OBDII while driving and look for DTC output from speed sensor. possible loose connection can cause this as well

Tachometer jumps above operating speeds and bucks frequently at highway speeds. Note, just recently had intake gasket replaced.

I dont think your problem is related to the intake manifold gasket.My experiance leads me to believe that your speed sensor is bad(VSS) Back in the day it was a cable attached to the tranny that gave you mph on your dash.In today's "fly by wire" society this would be the most likely suspect.symtoms would include downshifting for no reason your speedometer would drop to 0 and the tach would skyrocket.Vehicle may come right out of it and operate normally,or it may continue to buck for a while and then even out.I would start there.

I have a 93 Nissan Altima (AT transmission) and while driving my car....sometimes the speed ometer stays on "0" and the RPM goes up while I have my foot on the gas and it sounds like it is stuck in first...

Speedometer failed when the cable is broken; if the gears wont egnage, its possible that you have any propblem in the Torque Converter or Solenoids. First try with mainenance and check fluids.
