The next day I discovered the CV boots were ripped in half... I replaced both axles and lost most of my new tranny fluid (why didn't I check those first?). I put in the new axles and topped off the tranny with more fluid. Next thing I start smelling this aweful smell like a skunk. I have cleaned the motor up and under three times. There are no spills, leaks or anything that I can find. Next I discover there is an overflow vent coming out of the top pan on the tranny. I double checked the fluid level. Still have this horrible smell. I drove the car about 300 miles and everything is shifting fine just a terrible skunk smell. I got worried....change the fluid again with Valvoline Dex/Merc III. Smell is better but still there. Did I say the car didn't smell before I changed the fluid?

Next, I start looking at running the tranny diagnostic spelled out in my Hanes Manual. Can't get the diagnotic to run, the O/D OFF light doesn't come on for 2 seconds like it is supposed to when you start the car. NEED HELP!! Does anybody have info. on this topic. I don't know what to try next shy of taking it somewhere and having my shirt ripped off.
