Re: Return of the Transmission Leak

Could something else be leaking down making it look like the pan gasket? Fill tube seal, detent o-ring, cooler lines?

Often times these old pans are tweaked out must enough they won't seal. When I find one I can't seal with a standard cork gasket and 8-10 foot pounds of torque, I get a new GM pan or a cast aluminum pan and have had no more leaks.
