Transmission help...again!

OK...looks like I have a leak...only don't know where the leak is. Explorer (93) was acting funny so I checked the transmission fluid....almost bone dry. My dad looked at it over the weekend and he said there wasn't a visible leak, nothing has ever dripped on the ground, and now it's disappeared. He says it could be going into the radiator, but if this was happening would my truck still be running? Nothing else has been acting funny, just the vanishing transmission fluid. I was originally here back in April when it first started acting funny and with y'alls help I added the transmission fluid and all was well...until a few weeks ago when it started doing the same thing...and now it's dry again.

Anyone have any ideas? And if it is leaking into the radiator or somehow getting blown out somewhere...is it an expensive fix? I know going anywhere as a girl they are gonna try and rip you off...but maybe if I go in with a few ideas it won't be as bad LOL.

Thanks for any suggestions.

Pull the Vaccum hose off your transmission modulator if its wet with tranny fluid the engine could be sucking it all up....replace the modulator and it should be the end of your problem.
