Subject:acceptable transmission leakage?
From:pickle vanagon

Since we're moving to the city in a couple months, I'm trying to figure out
the high priority things I need to do before the move, since doing major
work on the van will be pretty difficult for the next few years.

One potential issue is what seems to be a very slow seepage of transmission
fluid.  I've put up pictures at the links below.  It generally just seems
"wet", and, although some drops seem to collect in places on the
transmission, the ground underneath the van is always 100% dry.

My sense is that this is best left alone, and that my time is better spent
finishing the seam rust project, and other things.  What do other people
think?

Thanks!
Wes
