Gentleman- the fam just recently picked up this '80 C20. I say fam cause me, my two boys and father have all been working on it together. In short, I'm identifying leaks. Biggest culprit seems to be trans. Dropped the pan, replaced the seal, bullet and gear. Pan leak has ceased. However, while refilling with ATF I discovered the dipstick tube has a crack or worn spot. I'm pretty green when it comes to wrench turnin' so here are my 2 questions:
1) when driving, does the ATF run up the tube?
2) can I remove the tube by simply pulling upward on it?
Also, special,thanks to Jocko for providing me some coaching during the search process.
