Hi,
Looking for input on flushing trans without removing.
Put this anonymous trans in only to get 340 motor in.
Once the oil got in the converter it started working.
Just drove it about 500 feet to a different building shifted fine.
Went to move it recently to put on trailer and nothing but slip no matter how long warms up.oil level fine.
I did change filter before install. Only thing Im thinking is debri/crap in old oil clogged up
something in valve body??? I did band adjustment, no difference.
Im guessing early 1980's on age.


Thanx in advance.
 
If it's an unknown trans that was trashed it could have plugged the filter up.
Slipping isn't usually caused by valvebody issue's, but a lack of fluid or burned up bands or clutchpacks. (which causes debris in the fluid and plugs a filter or cooler)

Best pull the pan and have a look.
 
69 Dart project Im towing to my work tomorrow. (bigger garage)
Ill pull pan see what I find when I get time. Thanks for responses.

when you get a good trany check this out.
use ONLY steel brake lines. copper WILL break off. the factory uses steel for a reason!!!! mopar most use 3/8 dia tube, but some might be 5/16. i think most have the fluid in at the rear left side. here is an EXTERANL filter, i found. have one on my 01 dak. my idea is when you put a new filter in side this one will help from having to do the inside one as often.*
the old auto zone 2210 magenfine filter is no longer available at auto zone. BUT i did find the same thing as JX-160 brand-- ATP. at a real parts house uses 3/8" tube. a JX-150 for 5/16 tube. ONLY use high pressure hose. If you must. SAE J1019 217 psi working. NOT fuel hose for a carb engine.
 
Thanks Moe,
Had time to drop pan found filter plugged with debri.
New filter, clean up, quart of slip-oil additive on top of proper fluid amount
its working as of now which is all I wanted till I get paint /body complete.

Thanks again, all.
