Anatomy of a Transmission: Oil Flow in the Pump-PR-Converter-Cooler Lube Circuits
Gregg Nader
Vehicles equipped with listed Ford and GM transmissions can exhibit a number of TCC apply issues caused by bore wear at the TCC regulator valve. Slipping TCC, no TCC apply, fluid overheat and suffering fuel economy are common results of this wear. If the valve becomes stuck in the apply position, harsh TCC apply will be the consequence. If the valve is stuck in the release position, no TCC apply or TCC slip will occur. Reconditioning the bore and installing Sonnax oversized TCC regulator valve kit 124740-24K re-establishes correct valve-to-bore clearance, restoring normal TCC operation.
Sonnax valve body layouts provide a detailed overview of individual units making it quick and easy to determine what’s available for the specific valve body you’re working on. See all Sonnax valve body layouts.
