Yeah, I'm about to leave from work, so I'm going to grab a few pieces of cardboard. I figure that since it's my "fun" car not my "necessary" car, I've got time to try to figure this out right.

I'm going to wipe the entire thing down, from the valve covers, to the bottom of the bell housing, and try to see where the leak starts.

The only thing that makes me nervous, is that the last time I had it out, it seemed really hard to get the car in gear, and has been getting progressively harder to get the car in gear. Like I said, I had it parked outside, and I didn't see the leak. I don't know how long it has been leaking, and I haven't yet checked the trans fluid level. If it's too low, could I have already really screwed up my T-5?

I need to fix this car. I need this car. I crave this car...
