TRANSMISSION LEAKING

[Monster Malibu1]

I've noticed that after accelerating fast my TH350 loses fluid out the filler tube, anybody know why?

Insufficiant fluid flowing...Meaning u r not pumping fluid but more air then anything.... there is a restriction somewhere thats not allowing correct flow try changing filter and flushing system.Ive seen this happen a few times before it usually works.

It's been a while since the last fluid change but I've always run B&M synthetic trick shift in it, Hughes 2,500stall converter, and a trans cooler, I haven't noticed the trans slipping at all, just losing fluid out the filler tube.
Thanks for the help shaggy, I'll dump the filter & fluid to see if it helps.

If a media trans filter is used instead of a filter that is actually a screen, that may cause a restriction.

Check the vent on top off the trans first, dirt dobbers love to fill them up, and that will cause it to blow fluid
out.

yeah, what he said.

there was an exact duplicate of this post a couple of years ago. it turned out the vent on top of the case was clogged.

Is it coming out the top of the tube, or leaking at the trans? if it's at the trans, the grommet is probably shot.

Vent tube as said above, or clogged Trans cooler restricting flow.

The trans cooler is less than a year old and the oil comes out of the top of the filler tube, I'll have to check the dip stick grommet.
Thanks for the help guys.
