Sounds like your gearbox has gone for a burton, it needs inspecting by a gearbox centre though it sounds as though it probably needs something replacing, and expect the worst (ie full gearbox rebuild), you dont just lose power in one gear unless something mechanical goes wrong with the gearbox

Out of interest, what sort of torque are you running?

I was told that over 350 ftlb was too much for a 5-speed box
