What should I use to clean an old transmission fluid stain from my driveway -- already pressure washed?

Update:

I didn't spill oil. Did you read my entire question? My car's transmission pan leaked. I'll tell my car not to leak in the future.

Update 2:

This isn't a fresh leak, and I already pressure-washed it. I'm pretty sure that something absorbent like cat litter would do anything. I mean, if the pressure washer didn't completely eliminate it . . .

Update 3:

"would NOT do anything"

    I have tried this method several times---for oil and other lubricants---and it worked. Good luck!

    Buy you a bag of the cheapest kitty litter you can find. Put some down on the stain and then grind it into it with your feet.

    Maybe simple-green degreaser@ most hardware stores.

    you can't :( Next time try harder not to spill any oil. Trying harder means changing your gaskets. Oil is EXTREMELY hard to get off of pavement.

    Have you tried CLR? I find that removes almost everything.
