    What have you done to your square lately??

    Operation Trans Cooler began Friday. Plans are to install a cooler once it and my fittings arrive in a couple days.

    What have you done to your square lately??

    For something like an automatic transmission, where you have fluid doing different things in different locations in the tranny there is really no perfect place to monitor temps. What’s important is to establish a baseline and just watch it for deviations versus a specific number. This is...

    What have you done to your square lately??

    Installed my transmission temperature gauge today. The Autometer literature recommended a “short” sending unit if installing it in a pressure test port so as to not bottom it out. Install went with no problem and I took it for a 40 minute ride. Temps climbed to a bit under 210 then fluctuated a...

    I can say that a wire wheel on a drill motor does a great job of transferring grime from the transfer case to your body. I looked like I had changed races by the time I was done. :D

    TH350 oil level, engine off

    I am planning to install a temperature sending unit in my TH350 and was leaning towards installing the unit in the 1/8” NPT pressure tap port, circled in yellow. With the engine off and tranny cold is this port above the fluid level ( assuming not overfilled) or will I need to drain fluid before...

    A few days ago I posted about my transmission work; changing to a pan with a drain plug and removing the kick down cable. I reused the LubeLocker pan gasket, something I have done in the past with no issues. This time it developed a leak so I dropped the pan and replaced the gasket. Today I...

    Went after that kick down cable leak on my transmission and decided I would also get a transmission pan with a drain plug! Got everything then removed the kick down cable from my TH350 along with the internal wire/linkage. Installed a kick down cable delete fitting in the transmission housing...

    TH350 intermittent leak

    Thanks, but I know exactly where it’s leaking from as I described in my original post. What I don’t know is why it happens only occasionally.

    TH350 intermittent leak

    The source of the leak is clear, but not sure why it only leaks occasionally or if this is one of those things you just have to live with for this transmission.

    TH350 intermittent leak

    I have an intermittent leak from my transmission that puzzles me. It’s a TH350 behind a 454 and driving a NP203 transfer case in my 75 Blazer. Transfer case is stock therefore full-time 4WD. Everything drives fine with no issues. The only thing I’ve done to the transmission was replace the...

    Let’s see your memorabilia?!

    It’s strange how some things can evoke so many memories. This Sunbeam Model 11 Mixmaster has been in the family longer than I have. My parents bought it new in 1956 so it was already 4 years old when I was born. Many, many memories of them using it for holiday meals, cakes, cookies etc. Mom...

    Shows and Cruise-Ins are starting up here. Went to a local Cruise-In this afternoon. Beautiful evening, temps in the 80s with a breeze. The blue GTO belongs to a neighbor down the road. I saw him leave today and just knew where he was headin! That 57 Chevy was one of the nicest I’ve seen in a...

    Dear Diary: Today I learned what a deck of cards was really made for. Not sure what other people use them for though.

    Let’s see your memorabilia?!

    A few other items of interest. The Dremel Moto Tool display I picked up from the wife’s uncle years ago. Not sure what it dates to but it’s cool. Bought the Snap On commemorative tool box when it came out for the Mustang 30 year anniversary. I was big into Mustangs back then and had a 1969 Boss...

    Garage upgrade

    I mentioned the thread here regarding messing with garage door springs to the guy installing my opener. Great guy BTW, veteran, family business. Anyway he told me of a newbie who went after a spring with a short ratchet wrench versus a long bar. Thing wrapped his arm around the shaft a couple...
