I bought a 92 Chev 2500 4X4 from a guy just recently. He said the tranny wont go into gear. I found the transfer case was in neutral. So i put it in gear and away it goes. But reverse seamed sluggish. Eventually it would engage and be fine. Just had to give it a few seconds. Now it just slips and wont move. All forward gears work. The pervious owner had the tranny rebuilt last summer. Fluid level: I found that the dipstick tube was loose so I tapped it down and fixed. I now have a pretty good leak that apears to be coming from that seal. But the level is ok.

Since the fluid is burnt is a indication of overheating probably caused by the clutches slipping and the trans left in overdrive in speeds lower than 40 mph. its possible that you have a pressure problem but you need to remove the pan and inspect for any metal or clutch material. but you will probably have to have it rebuilt or find a good used one.
