I own a 1989 Lx-i automatic with about 290,000 miles on the original motor and transmission. I'm thinking my problem is my transmission. I was driving today and it was fine, then later I started the car, I noticed I had high rpm like when im doing 30, i have 5k rpm. At a stop sign, I stopped, then i pressed on the gas, it kind of froze and the rpm rose to 4 and then barely started going. I eventually got home and parked it on the street. Then i took it around the block so try to see if it's still like that later. I drove around the block, around the first corner it kind of stalled again when i stopped at the stop sign. Then just before i turn in back home the car stalled at the stop sign again and i gave it gas. It went about only 20 mph with 7k rpm. The car smelled like something was burning on the right side. Thanks in advance guys if you can tell me what's wrong. I need the car for school and work.
