Hi Everyone

Flushing my tranny as recommended in the FAQ. Drained 2.5 quarts of fluid from pan, replaced plug, refilled same amount. Connected hose to nipple at top of radiator and turned car on. All was going well when I was in Park--nasty fluid was coming out of radiator, a quart or two at a time. Replaced as this was happening.

THEN I followed the editors note in the FAQ, and put the car into Drive. Maybe another 1/2 to 1 quart came out of the radiator nipple, then stopped flowing. I put the tranny back into Park, turned off engine, and made sure that I had put an equivalent amount of new Mobil 1 as the old funky stuff that had come out.

Turned engine back on for maybe 30 seconds, and still no fluid is coming out at the radiator!!! My car has its guts all spilling out, and I am stuck not knowing what to do, afraid to keep running the engine....

Your input would be so very welcome.

Thank You!
