I have a 1992 Ford Exploerer 4.0 litre engine, 248000km

In the last few days the transmisson fluid gets really hot and it comes out in the front where the torque converter is located. There is nothing wrong with the radiator it't not clogged up. I was wondering what the problem could be. Thanks for your help. Bluefin2003

Does it leak all the time or only when it get hot? Suggest having the transmssion flushed and change the filter. There are shops around like guick lube that fliushes the transmission. If it does not leak all the time it might be that the transmission fluid is building up pressure from overheating

You have transmission fluid leak. Check the fluid level and have it fixed.
