I just put my C4 back in my Bronco after having it resealed.
It is leaking out the low reverse servo. It drops fluid when I put it in reverse and also makes a loud clunk it never did.
Now replacing the gasket on the servo is obvious, but what else?
Adjust the band to get rid of the clunk?
My book says 3 turns out and tighten, someone else told me 1 out and tighten. They said,"Is it clunking when you put it in reverse? If it is tighten the reverse band after you fix the cover.
Loosen the band lock nut tighten the 5/16 reverse band adjuster snug with a short wrench back off one turn then tighten the band lock nut. A clunk when you put the transmission into reverse is the direct clutchs applying before the band applies. This lets the drums spin then when the band applies it stops everything and clunks. If the band applies before the the clutchs you won't get a clunk."
Any other suggestions? I'd like to fix this and wire up my exhaust this week.
For some more history on this check out what I found last Friday. I haven't touched the trans since then.
