I noticed when I stopped my car after driving for a while a rather large cloud of smoke billowing out. After looking my engine over & not spotting the problem. I noticed above my transaxles where they mount to the tranny a good solid line of oil/grease. I remember when I put my engine in the car that I was missing the gaskets that went between the transaxle & the tranny. I wanted to take it for a drive so I thought I'll get them later. Well I haven't driven much luckily. I forgot about it so the smoke was a good thing. My question is which gasket do I get? Is this one from pelican the right one? http://www.pelicanparts.com/cgi-bin/smart/...amp;itemquant=1 Would a local shop carry it? Thanks -Jamie

Thanks -Jamie Hey Jamie, I'm not quite sure what you're describing, so I'll include a picture. The seal you linked to inserts into each side of the tranny, at the output flanges. I tried marking the approximate location with a red arrow in this picture. - Bryan Attached thumbnail(s)
