Ok here is the deal...
Added fluid today to get up to required level. The leak that stopped yesterday from the shaft seal is back so I assume the only reason it stopped yesterday is because the fluid level got lower than the seal. NOT GOOD FOR ME!!!
Next... I installed the rear driveshaft and went through the range and I am getting nothing noticable in drive or reverse!
I need some direction on which way to take this and all suggestions are appreciated. I think I will have to pull the tranny out again because of the shaft seal but I want to try and nail down this other problem first to avoid coming down a third time. I guess I could pull the valvebody and have a pro look at it but I think a pressure test is in order first.
I still have no engine vacuum at the modulator but I do not think that would cause the problem I am experiencing, right? I do know the modulator controls pressure to some extent though.
I suppose I will have to run out and buy an oil pressure tester and hook up to the testing port to see what is going on but I wanted opinions first.
Thx,
Mike
