[QUOTE="clemsonjeep, post: 426768, member: 6317"] Ok got some trans questions im looking for some answers on. What type of vent do autos need...open element or will one of the bellows like TG sells work? Anyone had fluid coming through kick down cable? Granted mine is only at frame rail level right now im getting a constant drip from it. Id planned on eliminating the cable entirely but after looking at it im not sure how id do it...any ideas? Anyone had a slow drip from the seal around the gear selector shaft? The reason im asking is ive narrowed my leaks down to these two locations. The trans is the TH180 from a tracker so its very similar to other GM versions. Ive never worked with auto transmissions so its been a big learning curve. I always heard that i should check fluid levels while the engine is running...let me know if im wrong here. I filled the trans until the level showed between the cold and hot marks then drove it around the neighborhood to get it up to temp and rechecked it. Reading was still in approx the same place. While i was checking things over i continued to let it idle. It hasnt been run in 2-3 days now and its got a small puddle under it each time i go out to the shop. My first thoughts were its over full or the vent isnt working properly...currently has the TG style bellow on it. [/QUOTE]
