Well, for the first time since purchase, I finally drove my El Camino today. Granted, it was just a couple of laps around my friend Jack's back yard, but it was a great feeling to see the thing move under it's own power for the first time.
It goes, it stops, it even turns! There are a couple of gremlins, that maybe you all can help out with: I have replaced the tranny gasket twice and it still leaks. I used hi-temp RTV only on the pan side the first time, and on both sides the second time. What the F does it take to make one of these puppies not leak? The backup lights come on when the shifter is between park & reverse. They are off in either of those positions. Is there any adjustment for this? Thanks, John Nasta
