Car was running fine. Towed down to texas with u-haul rear wheels on the road. Ran fine for a day. Sat for 3 days in driveway. Then noticed a bad leak. Checked all fluids except for tranny because it is a sealed transmission. Fluid present on bottom of tranny. Wonding if a seal blew maybee because of the temperature change or just being old. Is it possible to change the seal myself? If its the Seal?

towing a vehicle with the transmission engaged is a good way to ruin it, must be towed with the drivewheels off the ground.
