but when you shift it into Drive it shuts off. Something happened and the radiator blew and caused water to mix with the transmission fluid. After changing the fluid my freind drove it into town just fine but all of a sudden it won't go forward. It will go backward but when in drive it will shut off. Could this be a problem with the linkage or the transmission? Or maybe something completely different?
 
more than likely transmission is shot. doesn't take much to distort clutch packs
