http://i129.photobucket.com/albums/p...orkdone019.jpg If your Modulator has failed (like mine) then when you take the vacuum line off transmission fluid will drip out (flow out) http://i129.photobucket.com/albums/p...orkdone020.jpg Loosen the bolt (its 10MM) and take the bracket out http://i129.photobucket.com/albums/p...orkdone021.jpg Old modulator on the right, new one of the left http://i129.photobucket.com/albums/p...orkdone022.jpg This is the thin metal pin inside the modulator... DO NOT LOOSE THIS!!!! transfer over to the new modulator http://i129.photobucket.com/albums/p...orkdone023.jpg http://i129.photobucket.com/albums/p...orkdone024.jpg Pictures of the only modulator http://i129.photobucket.com/albums/p...orkdone025.jpg http://i129.photobucket.com/albums/p...orkdone026.jpg Picture of the new modulator http://i129.photobucket.com/albums/p...orkdone027.jpg Bracket used to hold the modulator in place http://i129.photobucket.com/albums/p...orkdone028.jpg Space were the modulator goes http://i129.photobucket.com/albums/p...orkdone029.jpg New modulator in place with vacuum line hooked up not so hard to do when the car is jacked up;) |

Later shifts, transmission fluid in the lines, and a wired burning smell (also bad shifts)

RE: Replacing the A4LD Vacuum Modulator
how much did it cost you for the new one? And where did you buy it at?
|
RE: Replacing the A4LD Vacuum Modulator
$15, and I got mine from auto parts plus. Any store should carrie it;)
|
RE: Replacing the A4LD Vacuum Modulator
checked mine today and it was leaking badly. So i replaced it and figured i would change the filter and fluid in the tranny also. Well come to find out my trans is out of a 90 mustang even though my mustang is a 91. Drove nearly clear across town to the parts store that had the 91 filter to find out it didnt fit F*** me. Should have double checked.
Sleeper does your new one have an adjustment screw on it? |
RE: Replacing the A4LD Vacuum Modulator
Yes it does, but thats because its the turbo one (highly recomend it since you can change your shift points with it;))
|
RE: Replacing the A4LD Vacuum Modulator
good thats the one i got:D glad to hear i can adjust my shift points now!!!!
