Hi all,

Just got in late from a movie when the car started smoking right in my parking lot and dumping clear fluid out from the front. Instead of going into the underground lot, I parked it outside in case I need a tow. I *think* it is either coming from a transmission line or P/S - couldn't get the flashlight working well enough to figure out where the leak was coming from. The liquid was clear, and had a minor burnt smell. I didn't notice loss in steering for the 10 seconds I drove it to park, and although it was smoking madly, it did not affect the temp gauge - meaning its hopefully not the PWR rad...

Anyways - question for the light of day tomorrow - where should I look for a tranny line leak - I have no jack, etc. If I can't locate it, is it driveable if I add a quart of ATF, or should I just take the towing hit?

Thanks,
Ben
