Re: [Chrysler300] 62 300 convert speedo cable



That leaking is the torque converter draining back and overfilling the 
tyranny.  Can't expect the tyranny to be well enough sealed to stop that 
torrent.

Just fired up a 66 with that problem and cleaned up the mess underneath it. 
Now trying to figure out the nasty noise from the car.  Swore it was vanes 
on torque converter hitting originally but not sure it isn't engine by now. 
Tinny sounding noise which showed up soon after firing it up without adding 
any addl tyranny fluid.   Added fluid and it didn't go away of course.

Grump
