Automatic trouble
 
Hey guys this is my first post. I wish it wasn't about a problem but i have an automatic dodge.. about a week ago my tranny started slipping so I checked the fluid(in neutral while running) and it was a little over full and didnt think too much of it. I pulled up to the Ag shop today and decided i would check it again this time the ol goat was dang near dry How worried should i be? The leak appears to be the lines running from the cooler back to the transmission.

I'd be worried about it, did the plastic clips cut right thru the lines? That happened to me, but the last thing you want is to be running your transmission low on fluid every day.

Hey guys turns out the tranny cooler has a small leak but its not the problem. The cork gasket on the pan was just falling apart. I got the pan droped yesterday and changed the filter:tu: but the new gasket when I got it up there part of the gasket pushed out:dang:. next time im gonna read the instructions. so today I'm going to get the new gasket and get the ol goat back on the road.:yeah:

honestly a built auto is better than a stick. I have had both and the auto is a lot more fun and easier to drive in traffic.
