Will a used transmission leak due to old/dried up seals?


Recommended Posts

I need to get a FWD tranny for my EJ18. I see a lot of used trannys from 92-95, but if they sit for a few years is there and increased risk of leaks due to stuff drying out?

 

What about internally?

 

Maybe I could replace the seals on the outside of the tranny to prevent it from leaking, but would it be bad to sit a few years internally too?

 

Any info is nice!

,providing the trans oil is in the box this should be fine out side seals if there look bad change them , if there near heat change them now .

 

auto left laying around some times change odd if the first few feet ,run it change the oil add some aditive to the trans if it has a few Ks ( miles ) to it .
