i got a 96 accord lx and i just changed the radiator and one of the lines on the bottom of the radiator split and spilled a bunch of red fluid. is this tranny fluid? now when i put it in gear it wont move and just rev. what happened? i dont have any tranny fluid, can i just use motor oil till i get it to the shop? please help im stuck.

btw..its auto tranny

 

tow it........ better safe then sorry

 

i fixed the line that was split. im assuming that if i just put the fluid in it will be ok!

 

yeah its tranny fluid.... replace that hose... and refill your tranny with auto tranny fluid and you should be fine
