Well, I pulled this baby out of storage and brought her back to life. She has been under a carport unused for 6 years. 65000 actual miles. I bought this from my cousin who bought it new. I replaced the master cylinder, bled all of the lines and replaced the brake fluid. Replaced the fuel system from new pump assembly to the filter. Then the alternator was overcharging and i replaced that as well as the belts. Runs perfectly. Took it on a couple little shakedown cruises and did fine. Went on a 15 mile run and the transmission fluid left it completely Stranding me. I had it towed home, and havent touched it since ( 3 days ago ) The reason I have tried to save this van is because it is low mileage and not a spot of rust anywhere. The transmission fill tube does seem to be loose, could that be a factor ? Should I just sell it and be done with it ? Part it out, or look further into it's demise. I would love to hear some ideas. BTW, Put fluid in it and it still shifts, just runs out like a faucet is on
