Well, I'll tell ya what helped to diagnose my transmission troubles; I pulled the codes which indicated there was a problem with my 2nd gear solenoid circuit. One solenoid pack later, problem solved.
Try this link for a tutorial on how to get those codes.
Other than that, get an Equus/Innova #3145 OBD1 reader from Checker/Shucks/O'Reilly/Kragen/Autozone. You get the idea. About $30 street.
The trouble codes will help to diagnose the problem.
Also, is the CEL on or is the OD light in the shifter blinking?

CEL = Check Engine Light. It might be a good idea to replace that OD light, too.
