For those who don't know Doc-speak, weasel pee is a 50/50 mixture of acetone and auto trans fluid. :wink:

Too bad for me, the transmission is still in the car ! Would be very difficult to stand it on end.

A good pair of safety glasses would be recommended... but still use the "close the eyes smacks" method for luck. :wink:
And if you put the weasel pee in a squirt can (use an oil type, the acetone has a tendency to MELT plastic!) remember to shake it before each application. :thumbsup:

It's done ! Harbor Freight gear puller did the job. Just barely enough room to get the 4" puller in position. Back of the car was up on ramps so not a lot of working room under there. Tough job getting the old seal out too. Tried a Dremel tool but ended up prying and prying and prying but it's all back together and the proof of my success will be when I start driving it again next week. Thanks, Bob

Just an FYI for those who don't want to buy a puller, or don't have a Harbor Freight nearby....you can borrow a puller for free at your local AutoZone....pay a deposit, and get the deposit back when you return the puller. Lots of other specialty tools as well. (Disclaimer: I work part time at AutoZone).
