Default Slave is spewing fluid...

I cant tell where its coming from. I didnt have this problem before, and after an engine swap its showing up. Wont hold pressure. Does anyone have a pic of the fitting on the slave and the connector attached? I cant recall how far it goes in, but I cant push it in any further, and just want to make sure its in all the way before I have to drop the tranny TIA

Well i got it off, i think the actual post that connects to the slave, that accepts the connection is lose. Does anyone have a slave in front of them? The post with the brass connection on it is solid is it not? doesnt wiggle or rotate? It has to be loose.

The post on the slave can wiggle a little bit, thats how they come brand new. I have a brand new one I just installed and the input post is able to wiggle around a little bit.

Sounds like you need a new slave.

They do wiggle a bit. If you pull on it gently and it doesn't budge, then it should be connected fine. You may want to put a socket on the bleeder and see if it's snug as well.
