generic info on checking valve body function during rebuild

this applies to most rebuilds on auto transmissions
(even if you do everything else correctly, micro crud , you fail to flush out , thats trapped in the valve body will prevent smooth shifts)
many people forget to flush micro crud (metallic dust from parts wear issues) and most auto transmissions ,
have those valve bodys, slide valves,check balls etc.


out of the valve body when rebuilding any auto transmission, this video might help
installing ceramic magnets in the transmission pan also helps reduce the crud the fluid can push into control valves
and in any serious build a remote trans fluid cooler with a replaceable filter is a very good idea
