Sounds like not enough fluid. Did you make sure to get the O-ring gasket off the old filter before you installed the new one? I have seen the fluid push by it when you double gasket it kinda like when an oil filter install goes bad.

Re: need help 88 chevy 1500
what type of fluid did you use in it? It has a 350 in it? My 88 had a 700r4 that I swapped out for a th350.

Re: need help 88 chevy 1500
I was just going to say it should have a 700r4. I am wandering about there being 2 o ring gaskets on there. I would check the fluid as well first see if its low.
