trans or engine problem

Hi guys,
I've got a 93 F150 w/ 351 windsor and E40d trans w/ overdrive and I get a CEL on and it won't move forward in Drive .It moves forward in Low or 2. But if the CEL goes off , it moves forward in Drive.It's as if the brakes are applied with CEL on . At times when CEL is off it moves forward in D like normal. With CEL on ,it only moves forward in L or 2.At first I thought that my
trans went until I noticed that it happens with CEL on only and only in D . I don't have a code reader and have ahard time with counting flashing CEL.
Can any one out there please help me as I need my truck to move.This
problem was intermittent at first but now CEL on always. Well it goes offf once in a great while but illuminates before I'm out of my driveway,
Any help will be greatly appreciated!!!!
Aloha from Maui,
cal
