Leaky Trans

[eacyde]

I have a 93 ATX & it is doing soem wierd stuff.

If I drive to & from work (Approx 10 mins) all is well.

If I drive for 30 mins or so, there is a pool of trans fluid directly in the middle of the car just under the trans.

I check the level while hot & it is 1/2 down the OK marks. This doesnt make sense as the pool is BIG & the there is a nice solid drip trail behind the car.

What could the problem be?

HELP!!

You (or someone else) will have to get under there and inspect it while leaking.

That could be difficult

Might have something to do with Viscosity and temperature of fluid. I would venture a guess that a gasket is leaking and fluid escapes when it becomes hot and thinner. Mine is currently leaking and I am going to throw her up on rack tonight to change fluid and gasket. My .02.

Difficult does not make it impossible.

Make it so.

Without an inspection, you might as well fart into a hurricane.

I am just checking to see if it is one of those ATX SHO things that happens to all cars. I'll have to jack it up and look.
