    Automatic Tranny Fluid Level

     



    When you shut down, does the fluid in the radiator cooler drain back, raising the level in the pan?

    The 700r4 in the roadster was dry, then the day after a drive had a good sized wet spot. Checked, and found fluid seeping around the dipstick tube.

    Today I pulled the dipstick tube and found the o-rings undersized, and the fluid level just even with the dipstick hole in the case. Replaced the o-rings, started and let it warm up, and the level was at mid-point of the OK range where it had been right at the top of the range. I'm thinking it's at it's happy level, and the new o-rings should fix any further drips.

    Enjoy the little things in life, and you may look back one day and realize that they were really the BIG things.
