If you remember me from last fall I bought my Cruiser not knowing much. Runs like a charm. And I am slowly learning but it is an uphill climb.
This is really simple stuff I am sure but I have no manuals. I have a dipstick with orange top which appears to be the tranny fluid? First time today I saw the AT OIL temp light come on.
I was parked for a time with the front end on a fairly high angle. Started up and the AToil temp came on....put it into drive ( light goes out) and short 3 mile drive home light was off.
Checked the fluid and seems to be OK on hot; is more or less transparent pink. JUST started again to see (now cold).
Cold start I turn on the glow plugs...the AT oil temp light comes on; when it starts the light goes off.
Any ideas....suggestions? I have one mechanic in town that I have enough faith in, when supervised, to check the tranny fluid and add Dextron 11???
Has not caused me one problem since October 2015.
I know this is simple stuff and for that I apologize in advance for any advice.
