Severe trans leak
1984 G20 sportvan. I just got done putting in a new front seal, still leaks out at least what I think is a quart or a 3 foot puddle before I had to cut off the engine after hearing a pretty noisy bubbling and ONLY spews/leaks when running, then just drips and stops 10 mins later. I had the flywheel cover off so I could inspect it better when i turned it on, the torque converter was pretty soaked and it slinged trans fluid to the right side of the van on the ground. this is the second time I have replaced a seal (one back in march) and this is the worst leak yet. Could my torque converter be bad or can they leak?
the leak had started when I was going down the road and was losing forward power, and was leaving a visible trail of fluid behind me but luckily i was only a quarter mile from my driveway. I have a transmission jack and lots of time if i have to get under there again...
