Re: IML: 1960 torqueflite In Line Filters



You will see it with the trans in neutral & engine running. I had the radiator recored on a 63 a long time ago & rather then remove the lines from the radiator, they cut them & spliced in a piece of fuel hose. Eventually, one of them failed & quickly emptied trans fluid all over.

OK John,

Will I notice that with the engine running in neutral or do I have to put
the tranny in gear?

Thanks,

Robert

Believe me, if you start the engine with the cooler lines disconnected,
you'll know immediately whether the fluid is flowing or not. It will flow
at a rather high rate. John

But when I think about it, this might be a stupid question cause the
tranny is shifting perfectly. I don't think it will shift correctly with
one of those valves stucked, but since I am no expert when it comes to
automatic transmissions I might be completely wrong here You're right !!
If the tranny shifts as it must shift, don't worry ...  Problem with the
cooler lines is that you can't see what is inside when the transmission
works ! The oil fittings are far above the level of fluid when the engine
is stoped, so, if you check after a while, all the fluid is in the oil
pan and you'll have only the fluid which remains in the lines, because
the converter valve is "closed" so the oil cooler lines are also
"closed".
Maybe with a clear hose, at the radiator ends, trans in D or R and with
rear wheel off the floor ?
