Default High Stall TC Question

Just put in my stall tonight. Driving it around after the install I kinda smelled a burning smell. The only other mods I did tonight were changing the rear diff fluid, putting in a new pinion seal, and installing a tranny cooler. Anyone know what this may be?

PS: I am not sure if I connected the tranny lines the right way. One is the upper and the other is the lower and I forgot to mark them so I took my best guess. After I got finished with the entire install I forgot about the vent tube so I left that off as well.

How can I really know which one goes where? I don't have any way of getting under the car without driving to a friends house to use some stands. I did drive it a good 35-40 miles after the install and had a lot of fun!!

Back to the top before I drive it. Anyone got pics of exactly which goes to which or how to tell for sure?

I would check to make sure your fluid level is fine too. If you have too much, it will spit out the drain hose, and if it gets on something hot, it will burn. If I remember right, because of the bends and clips, on the cooler lines, will will not likely be able toget them mixed up or switched.

Good luck.

The picture that has the line with your fingers on it, that's the feed to the tranny cooler and also should connect to the bottom port on your tranny. The top one is your return line.

I think I got the tranny cooler hooked up correctly but I'm still not sure on the tranny lines that go near the starter. Hopefully they are right.

Read my last post, just follow it from one end to the other and make sure it's right. The high pressure line is the bottom tranny line (one near the starter) which goes to the bottom radiator port.
