Hi just acquired another 62 Special (crashed) with a 215 V8 and was dissasembling it . I disconnected the Dipstick tube from the transmission. When I did practically all the fluid poured out of the tranny . Is this normal ?, If so what a crappy way to keep fluid in the tranny ou: . The dipstick tub is held in by just one bolt (3/8") and with no kind of seal that I can see, no wonder the tranny is covered in oil !! :jd: THanks Justin
