Buddy looking at 72 sb challenger auto that pumps fluid out the
tranny dip stick when warmed up. If possible what are some possible
causes if you don't mind. Thanks in advance.

Another thing it could be is, the vent hole is plugged up. Unfortunately you have to pull the tranny to get at it. It is located behind the torque converter on the top of the tranny pump.
