| Hello, my name is scott, and I live in wisconsin. I have a 97 rodeowith a 3.2 and auto trans 198,000 miles and strong running engine. my issue is the trans is pumping fluid out between the back of the engine and the bell housing, I think that would be the front pump seal on the trans is bad correct? |

Are we talking a leak or literally pumping it out? Could be the difference between the front tranny seal as you mentioned or the pump itself.
I've seen a few front seals leak but it's generally not real drastic, more often it just marks it's spot. On the other hand, I've also seen a Chevy Van that blew the front pump and it will almost instantly dump all the fluid.

Welcome to the planet! it sounds as if you might want to just tear it out and replace it! I have had nothing but problems with my 4l30e and am seriously looking for a manual trans! But Thats just my opinion.
You have Yourself a good platform there and I am sure that you will find all the answers you are looking for here. This is a good group of people.
