Re: fluid leak up in dash 1991 geo prism

Heres the deal. I took my dash out. Once I got the instrument panel out, I could see what the problem was. The tranny is pushing fluid up and thru the speedometer cable. It leaks out of the key slot that aligns it to the instrument panel and runs back down the cable. It is diverted by the cable guide(s) and it probably puddles on the steering column bracket until it drips down. I don't know if this is a worn out speedo cable or a tranny problem.
Funny that this happenned on two vehicles on the same day in this forum.
Not to mention the same year and make of car. I had my tranny rebuilt 3-4 months ago. I think its the cable.
