Transmission problem
1996 Chevy Corsica 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic
----------------------------------------------------------------
My boy was 'trying' to change his motor oil. It seems he put 5 quarts of MOTOR oil into the transmission. How I dont know. My neighbor says he can flush it without a machine. I dont think he can. Will it ever be ok, should he start looking for a old transmission? please help
