A bad governor or servo perhaps.
Is it a 350c trans or does it have OD.

A '93 should have the 4L60E, a four speed OD with lockup converter and computer controls.
It is an excellent transmission, but if it was down three quarts, something was already terribly wrong. Unless they leak, transmissions dont "use" oil between changes like engines.
