My chevy blazer blew out a large amount of transmission fluid near the radiator. I don't really know where the source of the leak is. But the transmission really shows no signs of trouble, no slipping of any kind it just blew the fluid out and is low on trans fluid. I haven't driven it since to keep from causing further problems. HELP!

If it blew the fluid out everywhere I would say it is probably a tranny line. If it were the cooler it would not have come out, it would have mixed with the coolant.

Check the transmission cooler lines running to the rad.

Check the transmission cooler lines running to the rad.

2 (1/4") metal lines attach on right side of rad. maybe just loose.
