Temporary fix is to cut out bad section of line and use "oil cooler" type hose to make a splice using hose clamps.

I'm told and read a sun shell may be broke. Common problem for this vehicle. Shop will possibly rebuild and use aftermarket kit parts to correct problems the transmission had originally. Cost is probably between $1300 to 1600 to repair. Good luck I got the same problem on a 97 Jimmy and 3 shops said the same thing.

SOURCE: how do i change the transmission fluid out of my

There are two ways to changing the transmission oil. If your going to change the transmission oil and filter, your going to have to drop the transmission oil pan to get to the filter and the oil will drain from there, but keep in mind that it will get messy. The other way to replace the transmission oil if that is all your going to do is to get a large bucket and a small hose the size of the transmission oil line. You can disconnect the transmission oil line from the radiator on the passenger side and connect the hose to the line and the other end to the bucket. Start the truck and try to do this with two people, one to hold the hose and one to start the turn off the engine when the transmission is almost out of fluid. DO NOT RUN THE TRANSMISSION DRY, so make sure the other person understands you when you tell them to shut off the engine. This will ensure that you replace most of the fluid in the transmission, once most of the oil fluid has been drained from the transmission, just reconnect the oil line and refill the transmission fluid through the oil dip stick. Good luck and hope this helps.

SOURCE: change fluid on 2005 GMC Jimmy and now revving

did you change the filter too? If so is the new filter EXACTLY like the old one? Are you sure the trans is full of fluid? Sounds like a wrong filter or low fluid. Also is there a dent in the trans pan that could be hindering the fluid flow into the filter? If this is the case replace the pan.

Testimonial: "thanks for your help, the filter is the correct one and the fluid is ok and no dents in pan"

How can i change the seal that is between the motor and the transmision?

if you are talking about the automatic transmission front seal, then you will have to remove the driveshaft, and then remove the transmission, in order to remove the seal from the front of the transmission, this is a timely job, and care has to be done in replacing the seal in, order to get it started straight , take a large socket or seal installation tool, or a piece of a wood 2/4, and hammer, and gradually tap the new seal inward till it bottoms out, then re install the transmission, and driveshaft , and start vehicle up and check fluid level, and you should be ok.

When i crank up my explorer it is pouring transmission fluid stop at a red light an it leaked out a quart of fluid

You won't go far this way. Its cheaper to tow it than replace a transmission. There are a few fluid lines to check at the transmission. Several servos and the speedometer sender are in the case.
They have gaskets and the plastic may crack. The Transmission pan can leak. The fill tube can separate from the transmission.

If the leak is coming from the inspection cover next to the engine, it can be a front seal, and if the leak is coming from where the drive-shaft slides into the transmission housing, that's a tail-shaft seal.

The fluid lines run to the front of the SUV to the Radiator where there are cooling lines going into the bottom of the Radiator. It can leak from a Radiator tank hole because there are 2 separate tanks in the Radiator. Then all you do is replace the Radiator. On some models there may be a separate Air cooled Auxiliary radiator, not to be confused with a power steering cooler.

The fluid lines will rust and need replacing. If you are trying to make a line, there are different flares for the tubing ends. Bring in your bad part to match it up.

I hope my solution is helpful to you. You need to be under the SUV to see anything. Even a quick change lube bay would make it possible to find a leak.

Can we flush the transmission fluid in her GMC 1998 Jimmy?

You dont have to flush the fluid because transmission fluid has detergents in it that will clean the transmission.You need to go ahead and by a transmission filter, its only abou 20 dollars and it will come with the transmission pan gasket. All you need is the filter and fluid and a catch pan and you can do it in your front yard if you want to. I hope that helps you out!

Power steering fluid leaked out of 2000 GMC Jimmy

well it went somewhere, check all the lines and look for signs of recent fluid leaks, it will be very apparent if u lost that much fluid, most likely it will either be the power sterering hoses or the front shaft seal of the pump.
