Transmissin Issue

Why would trans fluid be coming out of the vacuum hose plugged into the intake?

Re: Transmissin Issue

Modulator is bad. Cheap and easy to replace

Re: Transmissin Issue

This transmission has other issues. I'm not putting any more money into it.

Which replacement would you all recommend:

B&M 113001
or
TCI 311000

Thanks!

Re: Transmissin Issue

those issues ( what ever they are) could be from a bad modulator, its a cheap way to find out if the tranni is bad....

Re: Transmissin Issue

The tranny needs a complete rebuild that was quoted to me locally at $900 - $1100 depending on parts required. Therefore, I plan to buy a complete performance unit, but I am not sure which one is better than the other. I have already been warned of Monster transmissions.

Re: Transmissin Issue

They are both TH350's...not much difference between them.

Re: Transmissin Issue

I was curious if one was better quality than the other. I ordered the B&M. JEGS price matched Amazon for $818 free shipping and warranty it for a year. So I felt like that was a decent deal.
