when this happens, watch your tach and see if rpms are increasing and then coming back down. you may have a clutch thats worn and slips even though you don't feel or smell anything. the tach can help you see if that is occurring. check to see that the clutch is coming up fully as well. if not, change the fluid and see if that helps. also make sure that if its only at WOT you are just not experiencing wheel spin.
