Re: Ultramatic Transmission External Trans. Fluid Cooler - 1956

Greetings,

I did take the advise to have the radiator checked and sure enough it was plugged. Got it back with a new core on Friday, so we'll see if that helps once I get the fluid changed.

I noticed Saturday when I started it and let it run that I now have a leak coming from the tranny. It looks to be coming through the hole in the plate that gives you access to the drain plugs on the torque converter.

Any ideas what seal(s) might be there that might have failed because of the overheating?

Thanks All.
