Answer 2

It is likely the pump but it could be a clutch. With out pulling the pan thats all any of us will be able to say. Luckily these transmissions are common and in-expensive. Oh I say the pump because I had the same problem in my old c10. Which was the pump. You would put it in a forward gear and it would go nowhere. In reverse it would go if you reved it up a bit. But I guess to the guy below me that is some how funny sounds like he is the clueless one.
