Tranny fluid comeing out of dipstick tube,Can somebody tell me why?
I was driveing my car the other day,The light turned green and i pretty much floored it
About the time my car hit 3rd I looked in my rear view mirror and i see all this smoke trailing behind me
When i got home i pop the hood,And transmission fluid has come out of the dip-stick tube,ran down the side of the tube,is all over the bottom of the tranny pan,converter,e.t.c. And the only time it does this is when you realy get on the throttle.Does anyone know what the problem might be?

Maybe your vent is clogged enough not to allow the pressure to escape, hence forcing the fluid out the dipstick.
