What should the transmission modulator seal look like, and what size. Also, how does the holder mount? Bend away from the housing, or against it?
I have the bend away from the housong, and it seems to hold the modulator in place and solidly against the case. I've two generic O-rings on it. I STILL get drips which libne up on the rear of the pan. It loses maybe a cup of fluid a week sitting, driving back from Augusta indicates about the same.
It is my contention that the coach can run dry underneath. I now have the oil lines and cooler baqck in stock configuration, and no more oil leaks. Using J.R.'s stainless braded hoses and stainless pipes. The pan has had a new gasket and black sealer listed for transmissions, I don't think that's where it's oozing.
What kind of seal is >supposed< to be on the modulator? The book shows a seal without being real specific.

Followup - A trip to Chattanooga and partway home shows no leaks or drops. I think I've beat this one.

I'll run it up to the Dixielander's 30th tomorrow and see if it stays dry.
