time for A HERO?, more trans prob... (o_O) Options

[mrhurtalot]

so i get the car all back together, the shop (Bob Dumont in OKC) told me everything worked when tested (hmm, same shop told me that the gears became "frozen" because i didnt put oil in them fast enough after i got it back....)

trans. reinstall is cake to me by now, so i know i didnt bork anything.

i try to fire her up. Fuel SPRAYS everywhere, okay, injector hose leaking, no biggie, i cut new hose, and replace. car starts fine. sounds amazing, forgot how much i missed it.

drive around the block, completely fine.

i drive to the gas station, i notice that i have no 4th or 5th gears; IE: when i shift to "4th" it goes into 2nd and "5th" is just third. no problem, i turn around and head home.

at this point, i havent even driven a mile. and ive gone ~35 most the way.

im probably about 500 feet from my neighborhood, and the entire transmission gives out. no gears, no power, but the car stays on. and theres a terrible racket (like rumbling, sort of like one of those old rock tumbler toy things) coming from the tranny.

whats the PROBABLE diagnosis, and what should i do about it?
