Exclamation Tranny Issue

Hope its some thing simple. So yesterday i changed my fluid and internal filter. No previous tranny problems. Get in the car and go. HOLY S***! was shifting a little harsh. then all the sudden had a hell of a time shifting: hard shifts, not shifting to next gear until about 5000 rpm. now it goes into first then i have to play with the selector at about 5500 and hope it goes into the next gear. it will the skip second and go to third. and eventually go to fourth. then when i accelerate to about 60-65, rpms abruptly go up to about 4000 and it wont go past 65. any one have any ideas??? please help i dont exactly have the money and HAVE to make a 1000 mile trip home in about 3 weeks.

Tranny

I hope someone has some input for you on this one, I'm not sure.

I do feel now that it would be best for me not to put on my new Permacool until after I see that you've gotten this one straight.

I'll go out and take a look at mine, maybe you got the hoses backards.

It does sound like it's not getting any fluid to me.

check the level it sounds like its low... how dirty was the fluid? if it was black then you might have some serious problems

so i found that it was about 2 quarts low on fluid but upon further diagnostics it seems as if there is an electrical issue or its no building enough pressure to shift. Any other ideas??
