4105, Pink (peptobismol color) fuid
Posted by Chamuko, Jul-15-06 04:56 PM
Well checking my friends car, and I pull the dip stick...fluid the color of pepto bismol ( pink bubble gum) is all I see. My first guess is that Its leaving coolant through the radiators cooler... any thoughts?

Did you try running a seperate cooler yet? And did you check to see if it's sticky? Did he drive it like that, how'd it run if he did? Give signs that something was wrong or it shifts fine but you checked anyways?

Your tranny could be f-up? I do know that if you check to see if an engine is blown, at a salvage yard. Look at the oil cap, and if shows signs of this pink color its blown. I've red this in the Haynes customized book found at any autoparts store. Bummer dude..

If it is blown, now will be the time to do the ATX conversion Mtx the neon transmission.
