'91 Ford E150 van. Noticed that van was straining while driving as if it wasn't in gear. Then when I went to park and put it in reverse it didn't move nor did it pull in drive gear and did not move at all in lowest gear. Check fluids and all is good there. Shut vehicle off. When I started van the next day it was giving whining noises and also fanning type sounds. Of course it hard to say but please advise on least and worst case scenerios...average price ranges etc. Either way I will be taking it to AAMCO Transmission but I would like to have an idea and not feel that I may be scammed, especially if it just may be a minor tranny problem versus a major one.

Did you check the fluid with the engine running? If it is full, you are going to need to have the transmission rebuilt or replaced. Depending on the mileage on the van and the condition, it may not be worth the cost of repair. You may want to look into having a used transmission installed if you decide to repair the vehicle.

Fords often do that when the filter is clogged, how many miles are on it?
