No third gear
If it does not shift into 3rd gear and defaults to 6th gear, your K1 clutch has a blown piston seal.
Most shops will not disassemble and just replaces with Reman. I did it myself, 1st automatic transmission I ever worked on. New piston seal and an upgraded oil pump while there and it's like new again. Been over a year.
