Well i should have known better. My Tc was making some noise but i went ahead and "Tuned" the pump up and lets just say within 50 miles it sounds as if there are 2 boulders having a fistfight underneath my truck. I was wondering if anyone knew the path the fluid takes when leaving the TC i.e. if it dumps right back into the pan or goes through the tranny. Anyone ever used Pro Kint Reman Tc's? I can get one for about a hundred bucks which i would like to throw in just to patch it till i get the money to build my tranny. I need something quick, cheap and temporary as this is my daily driver.

Are you shore it isn't your flex plate is cracked?

Thats probly the fist thing to check sence the first gen flex plates are prone two crack

 

Are you sure its not the flexplate? Either way its best to do both while you are in there.

 

Opps too slow!

 

Get a second gen flexplate if that's your problem.

 

And stop driving it till you see what it is. The cracked flex-plate often goes to chawing on the engine to bell-housing adaptor.

It's my understanding Dodge is proud of them.

 

well the dealership i had it at a week ago checked all that and told me it was a TC, the Flexplate is only about 3 mos old.

I thought when a TC gives up it just stops working

 

well i took the inspection plate off and pieces of metal fell out. so it is the FP....
now hopefully they will waranty it, now that i have turned up the pump.

when thay replaced the tranny i dout that thay replaced the fp

 

Who turned the what up??? What's a pump??

 

they did replace the FP as they gave me the invoice for the repair and the pump is the Injector Pump

Please don't tell them you turned up the pump!

The FP was junk or it would not have blown, and turning up the pump just made it happen sooner.

 

no i wont tell them, except i cant tell if the idle is right, i actually turned it down.... But i cant run it long enough to tell.
