What does your fluid look like? Is the level up to snuff? (gotta check it in Neutral....) Take it for a drive, get everything nice and warm, block the wheels, or, set the e-brake, put it in neutral, and check the fluid
If that looks ok, grab yourself a filter and gasket kit, and six quarts of ATF +4. Drop the pan, and while you are in there, have a look at the governor pressure sensor, and solenoid. Clean them out, or replace them.... adjust bands, and reassemble. See if that improves its attitude any. If it doesn't.... start saving your pennies for the trans rebuild.

Shift linkage?
I have a 98 dodge ram and went to go to work this morning and it wouldn't go into gear. It's an automatic transmission and as I grabbed the shift lever and put it into gear it felt different. The lever on the steering column moves (and feels like the cable is moving but nothing is engaging. Please help.
