904 troubleshoting

Have a temp gauge for it? Depending on the brand of converter and gear ratio that 3200stall may have been the death of it, if it was slipping, or you didnt up the cooling system for more stall.


no tempgauge except for that old warninglight on the dash that probably doesnt work anymore but its still hooked just because it those exist ;)


its a custombuilt realy nice and tight converter and i have 3.91 gears and low 26"tires...
have done the "smellcheck" to the oil many times and it never had that smell of burnt oil beore it started slipping, seams strange that it just started slipping after so many miles with no real wear on the clutchplates...
will get a bigger cooler for the transmission just for safety i gues but its seems odd that it worked so good for so long time
thanks
