I hope all the expert loopers out there will be able to give me some
advice. My 73 Eldo runs weel, but since I bought it 5 years ago it
always squirts some tranny oil out of the vent plug on the top of the
transmission case. I have taken it apart on a few occasions and cleaned
it out. The little piston in there and the spring seem to be ok and not
be stuck or binding. I keep the oil level to the side plug and am
careful not to over fill. I have gotten into the habit of keeping a
small rag over the vent plug to keep the oil from running down the case.
Any ideas how I can stop this vent leak?
Thanks guys,
Vince in NY
BTW - It ran like a charm out to Orient Point last weekend and going the
other way I saw another looper. Was it anyone on this list???
