    Tranny problems

     



    So I just put in a new cam in my 350 its a 262 xe from comp cams. Any way I had to pull the motor and trans cuz I figured this would be the best time to paint the block and tranny. So after I had pop the engine and tranny back in and got the car running again but the tranny started leaking. At first I thought it was the dip stick cuz it is coming from the front right of the tranny but when I fixed that the dip stick it just keeps leaking. The leaking got worse after I drove the first time. So where else could it come from. maybe the gasket? I dunno im stumped.

    Always replace your front input shaft seal and rear shaft seal whenever you pull your engine.Also check your tranny lines.When you say right I will assume you mean the pass. side.

    Things to check. The input/output seals are always an option. Best way to check for them is to put a large piece of cardboard under the car. Check the tightness of the transmission cooler lines, the pan gasket and should none of those work, check the torque convertor drain plug. Hope you find it
