Have a 93 240 - Automatic and the lines are in bad shape (corrosion) so need to be replaced. Also will do the 2 elbow connections at the tranny - weeping and rusty. Questions:
Is the transmission body steel or aluminum - wondering if the threads are easy to strip or thread sealant advised on elbows - but I think they have O-Rings.
Also, how much fluid will leak out when the elbows are disconnected? Maybe should have some on hand.
Am going to do it in conjunction with a new rad so all connections will be fresh.
Recently replaced the O/D solenoid with the IPD cover - works great
Thanks to those that have done this.
