85 300SD trans problem

I posted last Aug IIRC about suddenly having no forward or reverse. Before that the trans worked great. I have just now had time to remove the trans. Before I took it out I removed a cooler line and started the car for about 2 seconds and trans fluid was squirting out. That should mean the pump is working. When I pulled the pan there were no particles of any kind and the fluid was bright pink. edit(** I meant to say red ****) I was told to look for the 2 tabs missing that the torque converter engages in the trans but they are both OK. So my delimma is what could be wrong with the trans at 115K miles that causes no movement of any kind? Thanks for any help.
