Where is all my Dextron II going?

["jsadowski" <jsadowski@xxxxxxx>]

Sounds like it might be a pinhole leak in one of the cooler lines. When your at idle, the pressure may not be enough to notice it YET. Under driving pressure, its pushing more out. I had a 63 that started leaking a little that way. Since it always leaked a little anyway, I couldn't figure out at first where this new leak was. When it got a little worse, I could see a heavy dripping with the engine at idle from the coolent line about midway.

D2,
If it's showing up as steam it probably isn't making it to the ground.  Must
be landing on the exhaust and burning up. Sometimes at high RPM the dipstick
gets pushed out and fluid leaks out there, maybe onto the manifold, but I
think the dipstick is on the passenger side.  (My big blocks have all been 4
speeds)
Don't know how else tranny fluid could get on the manifold except the trans
cooler lines.
