Thanks y'all.
It started last week, 4th gear wouldn't hold power under 2000rpm. I religiously drove in 3rd anyways, so I never REALLY thought much of it. Then friday I was on the four-lane coming back from Bristol, and it'd just barely hold power over 80mph, this time I thought about it & drove on home in 3rd @ 65. Saturday, my wife drove it to town, again in 3rd. We got in it later that evening & 3rd was gone, she said it acted sorta strange, but her being nervous about any cars, I figured I'd see when we left. Well I saw!! & REALLY didn't like what I saw.
Fluid is full & fairly clean, looks to be a year or so old. No burnt smells.

Hocrest, the Leggy was bitten by the EJ25 HG gods.
