Hi,
my Blazer S10 is leaking transmissionfluid at the seal where the dipsticktube goes into the transmission. I got the new seal, but I have no idea, where it is mounted. Any suggestions?
Is there maybe another reason for the leak? It is the only place, where it looses
transmissionfluid.

 

The seal goes in the case where the tube connects. Remove bolt from bell housing holding the tube bracket,lift tube up till you can remove the old seal. Maybe stuck in the case or on the tube itself. Wipe down the area and put some grease,fluid just some kind of lubricant and put the seal in the case first then push the dipstick tube into it. Line your bracket up and replace the bolt. You will want to lift vehicle in a way that the fluid is going away from the seal. Good luck.

 

Sounds good, hope I will be able to remove the bolt from the tube bracket. Like always, its hard to get to the bolts.....
Thanx for your quick answer

 

Remove distributor if required.

 

not required! dont! Will just create another issue

 

If I don't remove the distributor, how can I disconect the pipe?

 

I dont know, maybe yours is different but mine is not connected to the distributor. do what you need to

 

I didn't say its connected to the distributor, but to reach down to where the pipe is mounted on, it would help to remove the distributor. If my hands would have the size of a child, maybe there is a chance. Where is yours connected to?

 

I can get to the bolt fron underneath

 

You can pull the distributor ,just dont turn the shaft at all and you will need to camshaft retard reset
