If he swamped it there's your trans issue right there the breather for the trans isn't high up so it probably sucked in water that's why it overflowed cause it was full of water and fluids and is building excessive pressure so either remove and rebuild or replace but great deal since you knew what you were getting into

$900 bucks.... rebuild everything on it, do all the upgrades and your still into the rig a couple grand. One heck of a Deal you got there. i know i bought my 90 for $900 too and it had issues but nothing a weekend of wrenching and diagnostics couldn't fix.
remeber guys they are only machines... if they breaki they can be fixed.
