59 Ford O Matic just had it resealed less than 200 miles ago when the car sits for a week or so seems to leak a quite a bit. Been told very characteristic of this Tranny that the torque converter drains back and pushes on the seals in the Tranny. Makes sense seems like when we drive it often dose not seem to drop any. So if this is true and I am not being horn swaggled is there any cures. Thanks Dave

My 55 Tbird does exactly the same thing and has since it was rebuilt. I have a friend that rebuilt these back in the day and he says that their is an obscure seal , oring or valve in there that is supposed to prevent that . According to him it is frequently missed by rebuilders not totally familiar with Fordo's
