My check engine light on and the code said my tranny was running hot in 4th gear. I think the code was 1680 or 1860

  If it's really running hot then it's overloaded, the torque converter clutch is slipping, or the cooling lines or cooling radiator are plugged. If you can find a technician with a scanner that reads data, you could see what the temp is while driving. That'd be a big help.
