Thanks all! It usually doesn't cost us a whole lot, that's about the only thing we have some luck in...lol. With a husband that knows just about everyone around that deals somehow in vehicles...lol. They put a newer transmission, new water pump and timing belt on it for around $450. Rick knew where to get the parts, plus knew a guy to put it in.

They got it home and it's still leaking. Now hubby thinks that it wasn't the transmission, it's this shaft thingy. It's vibrating and may be vibrating enough to cause the leak. So Ricky drove my van today. I told him to hang on with both hands because driving a van in the wind is a whole new experience.
