[DML] Re: Manual tranny leaking at drain plug

["Harold McElraft" <hmcelraft@xxxxxxx>]

I have never heard of a trans leaking at the plug with a proper new 
copper washer installed - Something isn't right and it should be 
obvious. That is, no copper gasket, wrong size gasket, wrong size 
plug, cracked case (unlikely), damaged sealing surfaces. The 
transmissions can usually leak but the plug is not a usual problem 
area.
