help needed (Engine Low Power)

Hello,

well I have a 1991 mini van pontiac it has 240k miles, I know it s a lot anyway, the engine lost some of his power so iy doesn't exceed 60 mph and the rpm goes easily to the red zone about 7000 rpm, so I am wondering what s wrong and if there is a cheap way to repair it. there is another thing, sometimes when I accelerate the engine doesn't follow it seems like the gears didn't set, I guess it s from the transmission but I m not sure. if you can help or advice that would be great. thank you all.

I assume this is an auto trans? If so have you checked the fluid? Has it been changed along with the filter? These are just thoughts to start with. Good luck!
