i would try some transmission seal conditioner first if this is a small leak. if you must add fluid weekly then you most likely need a new piston/seal on the intermediate servo the piston and seal are one assembly. there is a retainer ring to remove then the assembly will come apart. are you sure you can do this? i guess there's nothing to loose..........give a go good luck.......

Thanks for the response took care of it this morning and all is good atleast so far. I finally found an exploded view of the tranny and that let me see what I was up against it ended up being less than 10.00 in parts and only about an hour of work if that long. Thanks Again ,CHVYGUY
