Question C4 Transmission Leak

Fellow Members,

After finishing one big car project you always have "loose ends" to tend to.

For me it this pesky trans leak seen pictured below. It appears to be leaking on the inboard side of this mechanism (not sure what it is called).

Is this some thing I can remove without creating other problems so I can change the seal ? Also, can anyone recommend a good web site for purchasing misc C4 parts?

Thanks again .

Two items to look for, your vent tube is directly above the NSF and shifter, make sure its not coming from there. Next, there is a pesky O-ring inside the shifter lever, just behind the lever arm, its easy to get to and replace. Just be sure to use a viton seal that won't deteriorate from heat and oil.

Ok. I will check those two items.

Ok. After checking the vent tube it appears to be dry. So, on the lever oring can you recommend a good website for a replacement?
