So i replaced my radiator last week and now Im leaking tranny fluid out of the bottom pressure fitting. Is there O-rings in that fitting? Should i just get a new line?

 

Was it the quick clip type fitting? If it was then yes there are o-rings. Still have the old rad?.. check and see if it's still in it.

 

I think so. Its the fitting on the bottom I had to go to auto zone and buy a tool to get it off... so if thats the quick clip one? I do have the old rad but the rings are probably in the old coolent so il go look. How may O-rings? just 1?

 

Yes, thats the quickclip type. Theres actually a few rubber orings and a possibly a plastic one like the fuel lines.

You may get lucky and they are still in rad. Try to notice their orientation if they are.

 

If they don't have the o rings you can always cut it and clamp it.

 

So i cant find the O-ring. and I dont want to cut and clamp I hear that thats bad to do... too much pressue and lines can blow off. you think auto zone will have them?

 

Maybe... i'd hit the dealer. I bought a rebuild kit in the past for trans and fuel lines.. they can tell you the sequence they go on in as well.

 

how much will that run me? $$

 

You'll need to ask the dealer...

 

A good parts store like NAPA may carry this as well..

 

This is the line. we are talking about the same one right.

 

put 2 clamps on it we used to use hose clamps here on our hydraulic power units (return side ) theyll hold about 100PSI

 

thats funny i just had thae same problem with my 96 and it looks like its even the same color... but i was seeing what could be done at the tranny end of the line, is there an o-ring on that qd fitting as well?
