RE: Tranny Issue????
Its the forward clutch seals. I had the same problem. They wear out, and dont hold capacity.

I went through the exact same thing. 94 Mark VIII.
The bad news is, if your forward clutch seals are leaking, your transmission is most likely needing an over-haul anyway. The good news is, for less money, you can buy a slightly used 98+ tranny. Quite simply, less than $800, and then you have to change some minor components(TCC solenoid, MLPS, and re-pin the wiring connector to make the newer circuit board type electronics work with your older tranny harness.
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but that is what it sounds like to me.
Good luck, and if you do decide to do a late-model tranny sweap, I am willing to help you big time. I have done 3 now, and they all work flawlessly.
I spent less than $800 total for a fully JMOD'd 98+ tranny, with other "jery spec" internals, TCC solenoid, MLPS, fluid, line-flush, and a new Mach 1 torque converter.
