Well I'll play the "devil's advocate" here.
IF the guy never looked under the hood, then the symptoms, and SVX history, would lead to a snap diagnosis of a fried tranny.
I had a similar experience with my Olds not long ago. I replaced the Rad. & missed a clamp when I "Nut & Bolted" it. POP, hose comes off , car quits moving. As much of a POS as this car has been, not to mention I'd just paid it off, I thought "UH HUH the *%#^ tranny just died".
BTW I reused the factory clamps, but had a brain fart.
