I filled it with fluid when I was prepping the 289 to start. I have been able to drive the car and I got it to shift into second, before I had to back off the gas. It also goes into reverse fine but it just pumps the fluid out so fast you can't drive it. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Confused]" src="confused.gif" /> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>SmokinLX</b> <br /><small>Member # 1684</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2008,10,24,0,33,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> I would post the question here <a href="http://www.clickclickracing.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">www.clickclickracing.com</a> <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#dedfdf"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>71MercGT</b> <br /><small>Member # 4305</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2008,10,24,14,16,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> I would have to say that line is for the transmission cooler, running to your radiator or aux cooler if you had one. <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>Dennis L</b> <br /><small>Member # 5014</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2008,10,24,22,19,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> Thought I'd let you all know that I was able to put the car on a lift and look at a little closer when it was running. The problem turned out to be a large round seal next to the vent tube that was not correctly installed. Replaced that and the leak is stopped. Then I noticed 2 small leaks in my brakelines at the fittings!!! :rolleyes:Something ele to work on now. <br /> </font> </td></tr> </table></td></tr></table> <br /> <br />
