95 silverado loses power
I have a 95 chevy silverado. i was driving down the street at about 30mph when the power went out on me.
The engine stayed on and all lights stayed on. I could rev the engine but the truck wouldnt move.
i then had a friend tow to my house and i let it sit overnight trying to decide what to do next.
the next day i went out and started it and it and was able to drive it again for a short distance at low speed and then it did the same thing again.
any ideas?
Thanks in advance

I feel that the trans will have to be tested further by a trained tech, there may be a fault code that you can extract that could be helpful, so a scan and a mechanical diagnosis is the next step.
