Fix T5 crack that leaks?
i have a t5 that has a crack right by the fill plug, its a hairline crack that just seaps but i need it sealed so i can get it to the body shop. i plan on doing a t56 swap in the future. does anyone have any suggestions on a good way to fix the leak for the short term?
thanks
ryan

LocTite 5900, it's a silicone but for engines, Chrysler used it on their transmissions instead of gaskets. Should run about $12, and would be sold at a tranny shop, would work perfect for a short trip. You would need a caulking gun.
