Shifting problems

Hi all. My 84 300TD is acting up again. The transmission (automatic) won't shift, either up or down. Well, it did upshift sluggishly after redlining it for a bit, but I didn't want to do that more than once. And it wouldn't downshift afterward. Am I looking at expensive tranny repairs? Any ideas I could try before that? Thanks.

My first thought is a vacuum issue. You need to see if there are any vacuum leaks in your system. Also, change the transmission fluid/filter if you do not remember the last time it was done.
