Hi Stuart
I've installed the C6 trans that you gave me advice on the modulator line for.
It drives & shifts well, but is clunking pretty firm into reverse......a few people have suggested Seafoam etc to free any stuck valves ( could it be as simple as this? - the governor was sticky for the first day) - Is there any thing else you would suggest?
Thanks
PS - I've found that if I select '1', then shift straight to reverse (with no pause in neutral), reverse is engaged softer when cold - still hard when hot.
Going to reverse from any other gear (also from neutral or park) gives the hard engaging.

One other question Stuart -
The transmission I'm using came from an E-150 or 250 & has a purple stripe modulator.......I'll replace this with a black stripe one.
Do I need to do anything about changing the existing push-rod (different length?) at the same time, or just the modulator?
Thanks again

3/16" it is - Thanks a lot

Thanks Stuart
So do you mean you would you use 3/16"?

Hi Stuart
I'm replacing an AOD with a C6 & so need a vacuum line for the modulator.
Searching, I can only find some one who says it should be 3/16" dia - but the modulator has fittings for 1/4".......is there any problem with using a 1/4" line right through?
I've posted in the 80-86 forum too, but I thought I'd ask you directly
Thanks, Ken
