I have a fresh non lock up A-518 trans in my 91 4wd truck and i need to know if what i have is enough to keep the trans running cool.
The guys at the transmission shop that re-built the trans told me that the transmission cooler on the radiator was plugged so bad that 150 psi of air off there air compressor wouldnt even blow it out. I dont know if this true, i think they wanted to sell me the cooler they did because it was an extra 100 bucks or more.
But anyways i have a cooler mounted on the outside of my radiator, its not huge but not real small ether, i'd consider a mid size or aavereage sized cooler, the other day i read that you should have the fluid circulating thru the radiator part first then thru an axuilary cooler, how true is this? Is the cooler i have mounted on my radiator not enough to keep the transmission cool?
And if not, how would i run this set up? how would i get the fluid going thru the factory radiator cooler and then on up to the cooler the transmission shop gave me? The guy at the transmission shop aid the cooler they gave me would be enough to keep it cool, but i read never to run just a axuliary cooler.
