Changed starter yesterday. Seems that with tti ceramic headers u can pull mini starter between fender well and steering shaft. Took some cuss words and scratched knuckles but once I figured it out it was so easy. On dipstick, I pulled it up slightly, rubbed right stuff around it, significantly reduced leak, just one little dribble now. Guess if I drained it an put it around seal AND tube it would completely fix it. One day I'll tackle that.
Sent from my iPhone Does I leak all the time or only when the car is running. If its only leaking when its running is probly not the tube seal but a case or front pump leak. On Sat, Apr 7, 2012 at 9:06 AM, Jacob Fox <imfast101@xxxxxxxxx> wrote:
Lol I'm not to retarded now!! The seal is a newer type of seal, it's a piece of rubber with a lip. I took it off tube, placed into tranny, it went in fine and the lip was flush with top of tranny. I then slipped tube thru seal and it looked great, I bolted it up. I then started, ran thru gears, let it get hot, checked it, added oil appropriately. It does have a deep pan on it. After removing about a quart or too ( cause of dipstick) I readded those quarts, and ten another cause I was low. But it still wasn't showing on stick. I was thinking, man this thing must've been super low. It shifts and everything fine. So I drove it to store for some
More but that's where starter stopped kicking out haha and in mean time it leaked tranny fluid out the stick as I guess everything drainned back into the pan. Today, it sits cause I'm not touching it, it's still grounded lol I can't stand tranny leaks, or any leaks. But yea, it's the correct stick. Check out Mancini website ull see the seal on it I'm talking about. Maybe I didn't do it right? Don't know. Never heard anything bad about them.

OK I've read this email several times. 1. Did you removed the seal, and install the tube anyway? 2. Did you install the seal in the tranny and then put the tube in?
3. Did you get a new tube and seal or just the seal?
Well if you did no. 1 of course it will leak, nothing to stop it. If you did no. 2 the seal is now in the bottom of the transmission, you now get to drop the pan to fish it back out, put it back on the tube, and then install the tube. If you got a new tub, is it the right tube, is it the right diameters? Is it the right length for you car?
And they are a tight fit when the seal is new, that's what stops if from leaking. As far as it puking out the tube, you do know you check and add fluid to a car that is running and check it as you add fluid. You add a pint (1/2 a quart) wait a moment...check the level...do it over and over again till it's at the bottom mark. Then test drive the car, run it through the gears, 1, 2, 3, N, R, and park it back on the level surface and check it again, with the motor still running. If it's between the marks you're good. If it's over the full mark, take some out. Below the low mark add some more. Overfilling a transmission is a bad idea. Worse thing it will do is make foam and kill it, or it will blow a seal or pour out the overflow vent. None of those things are fun.
I take it you are playing with your 67 Plymouth. Or is this the Dodge 880? You didn't say. But either car would have the same rules for the transmission.
I hate playing with automatic transmissions. The smell enough is to make me want to not touch it. I will just pull them and take them to a shop. I'll do an adjustment, oil change, replace a tube or external switch...anything else isn't worth my time. Too much to tinker with, to easy to go wrong. Shops are cheap if you pull it yourself and take it to them.

I put new dipstick in from mancini, it looked like itd be a great upgrade. Wouldn't go in, so I removed seal, installed it first into tranny, then installed dipstick. Added oil, ran it, seemed fine. But now I guess since all te oil I added, it's puking out the dipstick. Talk about annoying, spent that money for no reason pretty much cause I'll still have to use right stuff I guess. :-(( again starter failed on me, bendix isn't kicking out all the way. It's been a bad day!!
