So I drove the ol' Silver Bullet up to work today, got here, and checked the fluids.

(You have to wait until the thing gets hot to check ATF and PS, so...)

Everything was looking good, except that the oil was low (not good, because the leaking fluid SMELLS like oil when it burns), and that the coolant, which LOOKED like it was fine was actually bone dry. The level that I thought I was checking was actually coolant-colored sludge on the side of the tank. So I absolutely have to get more today. AND the transmission fluid was WAY OVER the full line.

Of course, that was when I realized that (a) the car was on a slanting hill, and (b) I definitely wasn't awake.

So now I've got a cup of Chai and am sitting in front of the computer...

Ready to do mind-numbing web server administration...
