60-65psi < low, low3. Outlet from torque converter about 75psi at high idle not in gear, in 3 gear stall brake on ~ 60-65PSI
I don't, The 8L we have now is the only one i've been around and I don't know the part # but I'll bet somebody else does.Turbo,
Do you have any experience with those valves sticking shut? Do you know the PN for the valve body? I'll climb under her tomorrow and take a picture, but when I changed the sending unit, it looked like it was attached to that? Will I get a ton of oil out of the system if I take out the relief valve without draining the system? Can I run it without the relief valve to test it (put in a plug?).
This issue came up earlier Stan, but there was doubt regarding the accuracy of the 250-3000psi range test kit gauges that the OP was using. In post #49 above he alludes to having repeated the tests using more suitable gauges but forgot the piece of paper with the results. I suspect that you're right and TC out pressure will come out low, but I wouldn't like to say that for certain until he posts the results.60-65psi < low, low
Spec 80psi +/- 5psi, brake applied, 3rd gear forward, torque converter stall
Engine High Idle, Spec 2020-2120
Nope, sorry.This weekend I will remove the cooler, I suppose there isn't any way around draining all the oil?
It's a shame you didn't find the cooler dirty Stabber as it would of been an explanation.
At least you've eliminated it though,and it may have had just a bit of trash in it that's now out.
Were any of the tubes blanked off at all?
Update - I removed the oil cooler and took it to a shop in Oklahoma City that cleans and services the coolers regularly. They said mine wasn't that dirty :
