I have no experience with those transmissions - but in theory... Weak spring causes low pressure. Fluid is thick when cold and so has plenty of pressure. warm/hot fluid is thin, pressure drops, transmission can't hold. Sounds good - but a pressure regulator should maintain a particular pressure - unless it's just a pressure limiter. All just speculation.... *smiles* _______________________________________ http://www.okiebenz.com To search list archives http://www.okiebenz.com/archive/ To Unsubscribe or change delivery options go to: http://mail.okiebenz.com/mailman/listinfo/mercedes_okiebenz.com
