Re: 1951 (24 Series) Ultramatic Leak

Believe the recommended procedure has been the same on all regular Ultras since the check valve was removed during the 23rd series production. For those early ones having the valve it was check within 5 minutes.
While I think there was an early mention of check with engine running and some probably do, guess others were uncomfortable either crawling under a running car or having it running while going up on a lift so the time limit.
Don't believe the owners manual even mentions how to check other than do it every 1000 miles. Guess they didn't expect a Packard owner to crawl under and just figured they'd head to the dealer.
