Re: 727 Transmission Questions

Thanks,

I have a yoke in the tail shaft now. My concern is that even in neutral where I should be to get circulation the tail shaft could start turning just due to oil friction in the transmission. I can put a drain pan under it if it leaks, a little concerned about a yoke spinning and coming out.

You can also use an extra driveshaft yoke instead of the plug. I'd be concerned about the red plug leaking while running.

Thanks everyone for all of the great information. I will go with the synthetic transmission fluid and put fluid in the torque converter before attaching the transmission.

I will jumper the transmission cooler lines and try one of the cups on the tail shaft. I was aware that it should be in neutral to circulate fluid.

Thanks Again

Subject: 727 Transmission Questions

Hello,

I have a 727 out of a mid 70's pickup that I have questions about:

It is completely drained including the torque converter. What transmission fluid would you recommend?

I need to start and check the 318 that it will be attached to before it goes in the car. Even though it did have transmission fluid in it a few years ago should I pour fluid in the converter before attaching the transmission?

Last question I want to start the engine and run it with the transmission attached but no driveshaft. Will I be OK just using one of the plastic cups that go in the tail shaft to keep fluid from leaking out?

Thanks
Dennis C.
