What would cause the transmission on my 1991 Ford Explorer suddenly lose reverse and start leaking fluid out the over flow tube? It was -15 degrees that day. I just wondering what’s going on here. Thanks.
Answer: Overheating of the transmission fluid
will cause it to expand and be pushed out of the overflow tube. If the
transmission was a bit overfull to start with that will worsen the
problem. The loss of reverse may have caused the transmission to slip
and the fluid to overheat. No mater what the outside temperature is a
slipping transmission can overheat the internal fluid. The transmission fluid cooler should also be checked for proper operation.
