Hey, everyone i got a bit of a situation here, i have a 1994 ST with the 7afe motor and automatic transmission, anyways when i was driving the car out of no where the car started slipping into neutral so i decided to pull over to check stuff out, luckily i did, the car was "pouring" out transmission fluid and yes i did make sure it was transmission fluid not motor oil. and seriously it looked like i was taking a quart of tranny oil and just pouring it out on the ground, it was that bad not exaggeration either, i wish i was though . anyway right after this happened i got a call for a job offer, and i have an interview very soon and no way to get there. hopefully someone can help me figure this out soon! so heres my story i replaced the input shaft seal, and i put the tranny all back in the car and well it still leaked, so i pulled it back out again this morning and i cant see any cracks in the transmission either. So does anyone have any ideas on what it is? i dont have a job ... well yet and i have only $100 left to fix the car so let me know what you guys think i should do, thanks!!!! ill post pics if that helps?

Overview of it.


I was told this is a breather hole, and this is where the fluid comes out at.


This is the new input shaft seal i replaced.

did you change the pump seal? if its comming out where you say it is it should either be the pump seal or the input shaft seal that you replaced, so it shouldnt be the intput. check the pump seal.

Hey thanks for your suggestion! i was gonna check that but its weird i set my torque converter down and it got all wet from something, so i wiped it off and then a couple minutes after it was wet with transmission fluid again, its weird but its leaking, im thinking this is my problem, ima go to the junk yard and pull one. ill let everyone know if that ends up being the problem or not. Thanks everyone!

Hey great news! it ended up being the torque converter! i pulled one from the junk yard off a 4afe i think they are, the 1.6 black top and ever since i replaced it the leak went away! and also i have a flex plate i will go and pull if someone wants to buy it off me. if so you can email me at rapid3642@hotmail.com or preferably send me a text at 928-642-3301 thanks guys!
