Hi All,
On removing my Transmission Filter ,I found the O ring was installed
improperly ,the O ring was installed over the Stop, 1/2 half on each side of
the stop, it was distorted ,and couldn't be used again.
My question is does anyone know, why Many says to use the ,old O ring with
the new one?
All the O ring does is make a seal, so all the Oil goes through the filter
.
How can two be better than one
I have heard of using two Rubbers before ,but I said the Hell with that.

The trans pan pushes the pick-up screen (some refer to it as a filter) into the transmission. I am told that many times the pick-up is not pushed up all the way to seat. So that's why it is recommended to stack the o rings so that the pick-up will seal into the transmission.

Be sure to lube the O ring before inserting it back in.
There has been times they had a smallr on in the kit.
