Default It was bound to happen :(

Just took the XR out for a spin and noticed a rather odd smell. Had a quick look under her and found this.










Bit wet! Needless to say I knew the smell was burnt transmission fluid, a smell I knew too well from when my EL was an auto. You can't expect a stock auto to handle a stroker and the abuse that I dish out to it for too long, I'm suprised it has lasted as long as it has. 55k since the stroker was done and a LOT of abuse. I'll take it to a local trans bloke when I get a chance but if it is terminal (burnt smell to me says it is) then nothing can happen until I get back from Europe in early September as that is my current priority. Bugger :togo:
