Hi Folks,
Took my Pinto powered car (1977 2.3 motor) out last night. It has a 3 speed auto transmission. I took her to 3500 rpm in second gear then manually changed up to D. There was no drive at this postion. I went to 2 with the stick and it drove along erratically. I pulled over to see auto. transmission fluid leaking, hard to see where from. I was close to home so struggled to get there.
Had to pull off the road as there was no drive in any position, forward or reverse. Only half a mile from home so my buddie towed us home. Lots of fluid leaked out. Hard to see where from as it was splatterd more to the left side underneath. Motor still ok but just revs up in any stick position. No drive at all.
What is my next move? Should I replace the trans. fluid and see where it is leaking from or is it not going to work??
Appreciate any help here folks?
Regards Fred
