    Lucas has acid in it . Once the additive has done its job , it needs to be removed or it will damage the rest of your transmission fluid .
    You have a large leak that should be easily repaired
    Are you planning to keep the truck ?

    Any warranty come with the truck when you purchased it or did you purchase it privately as is ?
    Sometimes people sell vehicles with issues and they dont tell the buyer

    Is it me or does the fitting on the left (possible cooling line) look to be the source?
