drop the pan and take a look if the pan needs a new gasket (some had the rubber bpressed right in and of so then it's reusable) the filter kit come with a seal, a ring and the filter with a "snorkle" - remove the screws, gently pull down on the filter and make sure that the seal comes out with it - if not, fish it out of the hole but done gouge the sides - put the seal and ring on the snorkle and push the new one up until it seats itself - reinsert the screws and clean off the magnet on the plate - wipe clean and reinstall - dont over torque!!! - banknotes@rogers.com
This is a major mechanical project. Remove the clutch and manual transmission and the radiator. Install automatic transmission, new driveshaft, new radiator. You have just spent as much as a car is worth.
you can install an automatic transmission, but i wouldn't try one from a v6 unless your motor is a v6 as well
Take it to the dealer
Save up your money and have the job done by a pro, honestly, its a pain and not worth the savings.
Standard or automatic transmission??? In most vehicle situations the switch unscrews out of the likage side of the transmission.
As amazing as it is i need more info. such as; the year motor and what transmission does it have, is it 4 or 2 wheel drive and if its automatic does it have overdrive?
Put the van on the lift and drain the transmission fluid, next drop the transmission on a tranny jack and proceed to do a transmission overhaul. Reverse the proceedure to install.
Only the transmission needs to be removed. One day.
Don't do it. It's a sports car, learn to drive a stick. If you are replacing an automatic transmission... then I would think this would be a good opportunity to upgrade to a manual. You're cutting off about 20hp and 10ft lbs of torque by keeping an automatic transmission.
The 302 is alredy balanced. You do need to install a piolet berring in the rear of the crankshaft.
1 Drop pan 2 Remove filter 3 Install filter 4 Insert new gasket after cleaning surface 5 Install pan. Put 5 quarts in, then add as necessary
With limited knowledge and tools for rebuilding an automatic transmission, and you want to DIY, purchase a good used transmission from a salvage yard and install it yourself.
