I was only a mile or so from the house, so I started driving it, but it would only go about 10mph. No power. Pinging...

    Transmission fluid level on slant6

    I know I'm a novice at this and trannys look so complicated in a diagram. When I check the fluid in the car, I see it looks full. But when we check in neutral, there is barely enough showing on the dipstick. Do I add fluid with the car in neutral or in park with the motor running?
