1998 C70 Coupe Transmission Fluid Change C70 1998

I drained the transmission pan last weekend again and added another 3.5 quarts.
The funny thing is that when I removed the transmission drain plug, there was a crush washer on it.
Haha. I'm only 46 and didn't think my eye sight or memory were that bad yet.

Anyway, while draining the fluid I searched for the source of the transmission fluid leak or power steering leak on the C70. I couldn't tell where it was coming from. The steering rack seemed fine, the steering hoses looked ok. The transmission hoses looked ok. There was fluid all along that seam on the transmission case that has gasket sealer. Axles weren't leaking from what I could tell. So I'm not sure what's going on with it.

I did see a small oil leak at the turbo, but the hard lines on the bottom of it were dry.

I'll have to take some photos and post them in another thread.
