it was. The fluid was about 2qt low, I just couldn't tell easliy how low
it really was and it took me a bit to get the fluid high enough to warm
the trans up. It's driving as normal now :D

My '82 300SD with a 722.303 tranny has bad leaks and it always is low on
ATF. The higher I fill it, the worse it leaks.
Low is not a problem, overfilling is B A A A D.
I don't even check it anymore. I just carry a quart of ATF and a funnel
in
the trunk. When it gets too low I know because it stays in first gear. I
pour the quart in and I'm going again for months.
