Hello, My .02$ - Danny Fuller did a nice job describing the servicing of an automatic. Instead of paint thinner and compressed air you can use brake clean that comes in the aerosol cans. It does a good job cleaning the pan and screen and will not leave a residue like carb clean can. The magnet in the pan is an excellent idea. And while the gaskets are usually reuseable if you have any doubt then put new ones on. Todd Hill VolksWerks Transaxles Olympia, WA |
