sludge

There was sludge in the transmission alright!!! Plus, the bolt with 2 nuts worked perfectly, and those dang bolts that were removed from the transmission were really really stuck on there! oooohh nelly!

It's draining still, right as I speak. I speak as I type. I think I'll try the kerosene approach if Kerosene isn't too expensive. Need to fix the dang brakes too. We might try to do that tomorrow. I think a good part of the noise that was coming out of the car was the bearings, which I think have some issues, so I'm going to check them.
