I HAD A TRANS COOLER LEAK-LEAKED ALL FLUID AND TRANS STARTED SLIPPING. I CHANGED COOLER AND ADDED FLUID. NOW IS SLIPPING AT VARIOUS TIMES AND OTHER TIMES ITS GOOD
Tran is going bad.onese you slip the tran. the frition plate
SOURCE: leaked tranny fluid.
Your transmission fluid runs to the front of the car in different lines for cooling. you busted one of the lines. figure out what is broken by looking under car when running (in park with brake on), preferably while parked halfway on a curb for better visilbility. Fix the problem or have mechanic fix it. You shouldn't keep driving, without AT fluid, the car wont move...
Hope this helps

PS Don't even think about buying stop-leak fluid..!

The stop leak treatment may help the seals to seal better but I would get the car to a good transmission shop since it has that many miles on it. The fluid probably needs flushed out and changed by this time.

lvd, Start the car, leave the shifter in park position.
Remove the transmission dip stick, wipe it clean, reinsert the dip stick and verify it is between the add and full mark.
Do not go over the full mark as that will create a slip condition caused by foaming oil.
Let me know.

you need to tighten those fittings with a wrench... if they still leak... remove them and wrap them with a couple turns of "teflon tape" the kind they use for plumbing. the clamps you should use are hose clamps of the same type that you use for radiator hoses... you will note these can be tightened with a socket.... you really don't need to over tighten them but fairly snug... transmission fluid has quite alot of pressure.

The transmission is either going to leak out the front by the engine, or by the halfshafts, or possibly by the shift detent which is unlikely. Check the connections to the radiator - the small lines that go there as one of them can be broken. make sure everything is completely cleaned off and your transmission has fluid in it before you check it. If it is full, it should leak with the engine running in neutral or park. If not, you can always have your foot on the brake and shift into the gears to see if it will leak then. Smoked transmission when out of fluid may mean trans will not work any longer... Hope this helps you, Rick
