After about 300 miles of driving with Trans-X the leak has stopped. I know that I'm just postponing the inevitable, but if this buys me enough time to find a good low mileage transmission out of a wrecked car, I'll be happy.

' Postponing '..... on my 95 Lincoln it has been ten years and still holding.... and it was doing a quart per 75 miles at one time... so I keep the ten percent in the instructions say......

What does your fluid level look like?

I usually keep it around the minimum mark. It was just yesterday that I noticed that the leak stopped.I'll be checking the fluid level every 75 miles or so for the next week.
