It sound like your automatic transmission is slipping. Start hunting junkyards for a replacement.....

I hate transmissions....they are filled with stinky red cool-aid and only work by some weird magic that only transmission shops understand. Weird *** pressure modulators and doohickeys and ****. I dread the day mine dies. Thats going to be a learning experience for me. Good luck. Let us know how the replacement goes.

In regards to the tranny slipping, it dosnt necessarily mean the trany is going out, could be as simple as low fluid, check the tranny fluid and if its low you tranny will slip. If it is low, check the tranny pan and make sure u dont have a leak, and then fill it with the proper fluid.
