overdrive doesn't like me

Well i think the time has come for my tranny. Wednesday night i noticed that when i accelerate that my tranny will shift prefectly fine except when it shifts into 4th. At 40 mph it will stay stuck at 1000rpms and everytime you push on the gas a little is goes bahhhh. I gotta go like 1/2-3/4 on the pedal to get it to down shift and speed up to like 50 it will go back into 4th and go bahhh and everytime i let go of the gas it, the car starts to jerk. Do you think its time for a new one???? any ideas let me know. I checked the fluid on thursday when the engine was at normal temp (200-220 or so)and it was a hair above the full mark and was a redish/pinkish color. Didn't seem brown or burnt. BUT yesterday i was driving and started smelling something like a really bad fart. My console was hot and there was alot of heat by my feet and what not...My temp gauge sits a little above the line between 100-220 while im driving. Im ****ing clueless about tranny's so anyhelp will be a big help.
