<VV> ATF / overfilled smoking

[Matt Nall]

I over filled a tf  on my 65 monza Started smoking out the exhaust of course, but I poured a tf  into the carbs when I first started it after 15 years (that was a while ago). So I assume the ATF didn't harm the engine. How is it sucked into the intake manifold?Does it the overflow ruin the diaphragm of the tranny?

You've got it all backwards...


1  The "Modulator"  on your PG  has a ruptured diaphragm... so it leaks ATF into the Vacuum line and that goes to the "Balance Tube"  which then feeds the carbs!!


2  When you overfilled.... it just leaks More!    Never fear, a little ATF  is good for your engine.....except for the smoke!!!! gg
