Last week I had a moderate transmission fluid leak progress to a major leak. I always thought that I had a TH350 trans although I never actually checked it out (I don't know much about automatic trannys or the difference between them).
I researched the archives on TH350 leaks and found a good thread with some problem areas to check out. http://www.camaros.net/forums/showthread.php?t=58625&highlight=th350+leak
After reading the thread I checked out my leak and I see at least one problem area at the speedometer cable entrance. The only problem is that my "bullet" looks nothing like the one pictured in that link. That one looks like the one I have seen in Muncie's. Mine is pictured here: http://web.tampabay.rr.com/68ss/Speedo.JPG
My questions are: What transmission do I have? Where is the best place to buy the seals that go around the speedo gear shaft? Am I better off buying some new parts? The large O-ring that goes around the outside diameter was not leaking at all, it was leaking around the cable entrance.
Thanks,
Brian
