For what it is worth, I had something similar happen to me last year. The symptom was, when I put it into any gear, it would die. I had to manually press the accelerator to rev up the engine to keep it running.
For me, it turned out to be this gizmo that is attached to the carburetor, which controls the idling. It was only about a $20 device, I recall. If you need the exact "official" name of this part, I can look it up for you.
So this may be it, and your transmission problem may be a completely separate issue.
