Ok, I have not been able to get a definative answer on this from local people, so I figured I would ask here.
My trans is sorta shot. It has 4 th sometimes, and reverse is slipping really bad. The fluid isnt too bad, and I have changed it and the filter just to keep it on the road as long as I can.
I am getting a new trans (on exchange) and will be putting it in soon. Can I reuse my converter? I have had some people tell me yes, others no. Some say I can drain this one out by drilling a hole, and MIG welding it back. It looks like it may have had this done before. because it has a raised bump on the edge that looks like a weld spot. It is a 2800 stall from Postons, which I bought new from them about a year ago.
Also, when I am putting in the new trans, what else do I need to do to prepare the support systems for it to make sure it isnt going to get cross-contaminated?
Thanks.
