Pull the dipstick and smell the fluid,if it smells of burnt brake linings it is possible that a clutch pack is in trouble,you are explaining two different problmes,the first problem of not enough power in second could be that clutch pack is slipping due to the solenoid valve not opening fully allowing full pressure to engage the clutch or worn clutch discs,the other problem of the forward clutch been engaged when in neuteral could be electrical or a disc in the forward clutch pack has cracked and a piece got between the other discs causing it to want to drive all the time,on top of the transmission there are the solenoid valves,one bank is for forward and reverse the others for the speeds,with the engine off and the ignition on (disconnect the buzzer) get a second person in the seat to move the F/R switch from neuteral to forward,put your finger tips on the solenoid valves,when you find the one (you will feel it jump) for forward take the plug off and see if the wheels are still driving forward,if they are the trouble is inside,if not you have electrical trouble,the F/R switches do fail,the solenoid valves are spring loaded to close,did not see any trouble from them,in general the transmissions gives good service,but the switches like all switches wear out. Good Luck AJ
