i have a 98 dodge ram pickup 4x4 with 5.2 l. the check engin light is on the front seal is leaking. it only leaves a small 2 to 3 inch in diamiter if sitting alll day. when i take off if i floor the gas pedal it takes off really slow then once it moves in to second gear it drives normal it only happens on take off everyother gear works normal i changed the fluid and filter about a three months ago.the fluid doesnt smell burnt. i took it to a mechanic and he told me the front seal is out and the bearing right behind the seal is out and needs to be replaced but i sont know what the bering is called. i tink he told me it was pushing on a return line and that was causing the slow take off. is this correct? or could there be some thing more he cant get to it for two weeks but i need to get this done by this week end.
