Is hard shift normal?

Hey,just got a 91 civic lx auto.Do these things shift a little on the hard side or is it just mine?I have not driven an auto in a while OR a honda so was curious if I should be worried at all.Fluid looks fine.
Oh yeah, anybody know wich mark to look at on the pulley when hitting it with a timing light? White,red?

thanx.

Change your transmission fluid. Drain and fill, per manual specs. It will shift a lot smoother.
