    Tranny issue on the way home 2night....

    Rebuilding it is going to cost twice as much. it all depends on what i see when i pull it out and crack the pan off and see the inside.

So i popped it off, and slapped some teflon tape around the fitting and threw it back on. Dumped two quarts of ATF in, turned her on Viola!! no...
