YAY! Just Blew up the Tranny on the Euro.

Arghh, had a little time to to refill the Tranny Fluid today and gave it a hard test drive (bad mistake). On the Freeway wondering why it was idling so high, so in gear so the engine wouldn't blow up, I was able to get off the freeway and on a side road to see what happened.

My Cruise Control Cable was stuck on which was pulling on the throttle lever. I was able to get it loose without any tools, but I could really smell tranny fluid bad. I restarted and a gawd aweful sound was emitting, decided to try and limp it home.

I got it home and I could see a trail of Fluid and it was really dripping bad where I parked in the street. I quickly moved my Eclipse off my dirt parking area and moved my Euro there. At least she can sit there for awhile. Looks like the Euro 4 Speed I got from Al (Evozine) which originated from DanglerB (Mike) is gonna be installed sooner than expected.

Merry Christmas Eve
