1992 Mercury Topaz Questions & Answers
Transmission
If you are always adding fluid, that means you have a leak somewhere. Put a piece of clean cardboard under suspect areas under car overnight to check for obvious leaks. The one hard leak to find is when the trans cooler in the radiator is leaking internally. Open your radiator cap (only when cool) and see if it looks oily inside. If so, you need to replace your radiator, and I suggest you flush your cooling system at the same time.
How do you know for sure transmissino is shot
Low fluid doesn't mean the trans is shot. if it's full of fluid and won't move then it most likely is shot. if the fluid keeps getting low then you got a leak some where, most likely leaks while your driving like an axle seal. could also be in the cooler lines or front seal. get up under it and look for areas that are wet. it will lead you back to the leak.

Engine runs rough
It could be a lot of things. What maintenance has it had? Spark plugs, wires, cap, rotor, distributor, coil, mass air sensor, clogged PCV valve, vacuum leak, primary oxygen sensor, skipped timing, clogged air filter, bad tank of gas, bad battery ground - any of these could cause that. Has the car had any of this done lately? Has it had any other work done lately? Sometimes while doing one maintenance procedure, something can get bumped or disconnected and cause other issues.
