we need to scan the computer to see what codes are set. it sounds like your transmission is in limp mode when hot and there are several sensors or solenoids inside trans that could be the problem also a pressure plate at the bottom of valve body that goes bad and i have replaced those a hundred times but we need the codes to know for sure. 95 is a flop year and im not sure if the generic obd2 scanner can scan it but you can try. autozone will scan for codes for free if its the obd2 style
