tranny replacement

hi everyone, I'm about ready to replace my tranny, and going back with the same turbo 350. What I was wondering is what is a good way to flush the lines of any debris from the old tranny shelling out. I thought maybe they sold some kind of aerosol stuff at the parts store or does something else work better? this is the first time I have replaced a tranny and if there is anything else I might need to know please tell me. Thanks for any and all help. Joe

Re: tranny replacement

I've used that can stuff & it seems to do a good job. My trans guy wont warranty the trans if you dont use it.

Re: tranny replacement

trans flush is what we use at work... brake clean and compressed air through the lines works great too.

Re: tranny replacement

I second the brake-kleen and compressed air idea. It works on a/c evaporators and condensers too. Make sure you're ready for all the nasties to puke out the other end or you will get a funk bath.
