Finally, I may get to crank my 71 up after 10 years of storage/disassembly. I think I pretty much have the engine issues covered, but what about the transmission. It's a turbo400. What do I need to watch for, if any thing. I have had several opinions on whether or not to change the fluid and filter before I start it up. Thanks

You may need to replace the front and rear seals on the tranny, but I wouldn't do anything just yet. Changing the fluid and filter prior to startup wouldn't be a bad idea, just keep an eye in the front and rear seals for leaks after startup.

Thanks Brian, it made sense to me. I will change it before I fire it up this weekend.

The PY Online Forums is the largest online gathering of Pontiac enthusiasts anywhere in the world. Founded in 1991, it was also the first online forum for people to gather and talk about their Pontiacs. Since then, it has become the mecca of Pontiac technical data and knowledge that no other place can surpass.
