The only hope you have of saving your transmission is to change the fluid filter in the transmission pan underneath the van. You will also need to add new fluid to the proper level when the filter is changed and the pan re-installed.
DO NOT USE ANYTHING OTHER THAN FACTORY-STYLE FILTER AND DEXRON III FLUID.
DO NOT USE ANY KIND OF LIQUID TRANSMISSION REPAIR UNLESS YOU HAVE 3 GRAND IN YOUR POCKET.
And it still may come to that, most likely will. You have described a dead transmission. If the fluid in the pan smells rank and burned, is dark brown and gritty, or has visible metal shavings in it, the transmission's toast.
