My 1996 Taurus loses all power going uphill. It revs high but goes very slow only on hills. Any suggestions?

Welcome to the forum!

Check the transmission fluid for coloration and odor. Does it have a strong odor and appear brownish in color? Does the engine run smoothly, just seems to have no power (like either a slipping transmission or one that is in a low gear) or is it rough (like a misfire/vacuum leak)?

The more details you can provide, the better the forum's response will be.
