Removed transfluid for weight reduction, now it won't go into gear
 
So, i wanted to get rid of extra weight, and oil is heavy, so i drained my tranny cuz "screw lube i'm going in dry". anyway, i drove my car around for a little bit and now no gears work. should i rebuild it or will topping off my radiator fix it? Pease Help!

If you empty the gas tank, the tranny problem will go away.

Ugh..ok, I'll try that. Should I just syphon it by mouth? Just put $6 in too..what a waste..

Oh it won't be a waste. Lot of calories in two gallons of gas; you probably won't feel like eating for a week at least. Think of what you'll save on your Taco Bell budget.

I'm glad some cars are idiot proof and have a reverse block off at speed.

You should change to olive oil. It's less dense and will give you like 15 lbs of weight savings.

Hogbone Apr 7, 2016 10:24 AM

shut your face, 15lbs!
