Sooooo, taking Blucifer out of storage, I see that it has leaked a bunch of milky pink fluid. And it revs up upon ignition. And shifts Hard.

All the Popular Web Search Results tell me I’m leaking trans fluid. But I check the dipstick and its full. That is the Trans Fluid Dipstick on the left, against the firewall, right?

I remember it shifting kinda hard last fall when I put it away, but not this bad.

Can I risk driving Blucifer 4 miles home, or is this a Tow Truck Scenario? I’m thinking Tow Truck.

How much fluid? Have you checked the coolant overflow?

Hmmm... looks like a map of some island in the Pacific. Check the blinker fluid.

So I had a similar problem with my truck (c4 transmission). When you checked it, it read full but it was actually low. Mine had trouble shifting, not hard. There was an air bubble or something from the leaking fluid is how it was explained to me. Wound up needing a rebuild

Maybe it came from an axle. Definately tow as to not ruin something important/expensive

Milky pink = oil + ATF, I think.
