tranny fluid like strawberry milkshake

having trouble here,just got older toy fl, been stored inside,when i got it the fluid looked good ,after running awhile the fluid looked like it had water intrusion , changed fluid and it had same result after running a bit,did not drain convertor used dexron 2, did not see any coolant lines from radiator going to tranny...after milkshake colored oil sat a couple days it returned back to original color with minimum amount on surface, no sins of water intrusion , maybe air cavitation, where do i go from here thanks bob i could load pics but dont see a link here thanks

Most likely it is water. It will take several changes to clear up.
