my 94 V6 auto has been doing that for like 3 years now. it only happens
when it gets cold out. the first year i was worried, now i just take it
easy and it has been all right. i still have the original fluid at 123k
miles... i need to change it badly, but a little worried... so your
problem could mean some problems... but you may as well wait. since my
truck still works, i'm not doing much with it... good luck with yours...
