700R4 a NO-GO

My 700R4 is acting up. I hear a whining noise when I first start it at idle and in gear. Today, it starting slipping & bucking while crusing at 35mph in 4th gear. Then, it stopped going all together while it was in gear. I could put it in reverse, drive, etc and it wouldn't go anywhere. I checked the transmission and it was very low on fluid. I filled it back up and it shifted into drive and went down the street and then did the same thing again, was in gear, but wouldn't move. I noticed a small amount of tranny fluid on the ground after sitting for a few minutes. I had the governor replaced a week ago and it worked okay, until now.

Does anyone have an suggestions on what the problem with my transmission could be?

Thank you

Oh, and why when I let it sit for awhile and then start it up it will shift into gear and drive a little bit, but then act up again?

The transmission fluid is full and dark in color; and seems to be leaking onto the ground.

The car will move in gear if I rev the engine up really high and it will slowly creep along, but only while the engine and transmission are completely cold. After it has been driven for about a mile it will not continue movig. It will be in gear and I can rev it up without the car moving at all.
