Oil Pump problems in a 700 R4 Trans
Hi folks,
1. Question:
My pump rotor went with a bang a couple of weeks ago (yes it broke just like that, taking the slide with it), so I had to take the trans out and I installed a new 13 vane rotor with new slide, rings and all that's needed (into the old pump housing). But now I'm having pressure problems (pressure far too low) . The pump flanges aren't onehundred percent flat (I guess a breaking rotor could do some damage there) Does any one know firstly what can cause a rotor to crack and break and secondly whether it's advisible to rebuild the pump or is it possible that it's beyond repair?
2. Question:
My converter needs to be pulled about half an inch out of the transmission til it reaches the flexplate (of a normal SBC 350 block). How can I change that condition?
There are marks on my old rotor the indicate that the converter coupling didn't completely cover the depth of the rotor, i.e. those two notches on the converter only gripped the rotor by about 4 mm, and not the whole 7mm.
HELP !!!Harharhar...
