    C4 Valve Body Gasket 2 Questions

    Either we had the same mechanic rebuild ours or Ford shipped some that way. I was installing a Transgo Kit in mine, which requires the disassembly of the valve body to drill out one hole in the separator plate, but the kit did not include a gasket. I know it's not always the case that...

    C4 Valve Body Gasket 2 Questions

    Should a 1967 C4 valve body have a gasket installed between separator plate and top half? Mine doesn't have one installed. All documentation I have relates to a 1970 & up and I know there are slight differences. Where's a good place to order from (that will mess with a $.90 part) because...

    Leaky C4 Question

    Hello, My C4 tranny has a pretty bad leak, and I've found the source. I removed the kick down arm and the neutral safety switch, and the leak is coming from around the rod for the kick down and doesn't appear to be coming from the shifter mechanism that houses the kickdown rod. There is an...

    C4 Tranny Help Please

    Wow, never thought of that! It does make sense that the car has enough torque to really pull in idle. So my problem is a double edge sword.... The torqe from the low gear ratio is why i have so much pull when at a stop. So to compensate, I had the idle way down thinking it was early...

    C4 Tranny Help Please

    More Info on my dilemma... It also seems that when the car is driven a while and gets nice and hot it gets worse, because the engine labors more as the tranny engages and pulls even harder. More specs to help solve this tranny dilemma: Lower half pretty much a stock '97 crate motor...

    C4 Tranny Help Please

    I'm certain my car is running pretty rich. The idle screws are about 1.5 turns out on my holley 600 cfm vacuum secondary electric choke holley. To lean it up I would need to screw them in right? Or would I need to mess with the main jets to correct this? I'm new to this whole carb tuning...

    C4 Tranny Help Please

    When I set the idle on my car at 500 rpms and put the tranny in gear, the idle on the car slows to where it will barely run, and I have to stand on the brake to keep it from moving. It seems that the tranny is trying to fully engage at this slow of an RPM. I understand that the stall speed...

    Buyer Warning, Ripped off on eBay!

    Scammer is still ripping people off! I have been contacting bidders to retract their bids, but only a few have done so. The rest must enjoy playing Russian Roulette. Here's what I have done so far: 1. Submitted complaint to IFCCFBF (Internet Fraud Complaint Center of FBI) 2. Submitted...

    Buyer Warning, Ripped off on eBay!

    Well, 134 successful transactions and I finally got bit! Paid $90.00 to a seller using Paypal direct draft (yes, I'm and idiot, but now I know). I won an auction on 4/16/04 (item #2479069820) and paid promptly. Wasn't concerned because the guy had over 1400 positive feedbacks, but by the...
