I have done some research on this issue and your best bet is to manufacture a pin yourself. I have heard lengths from 1.250 inch all the way up to 1.680. The idea is that with the pin in, if you install the madulator, you should have some spring tension for the last .30 inches or so before tightening the bolt. Then use the adjustment screw on by the vacuum hose outlet to fine tune shifting. I am currently dealing with this on my Ford RV that I lost the pin for the modulator on my C6 transmission.

I have C6 n changed filter n gasket cause it wouldn't shift in 2 also changed shift modular now won't shift into second at all time for new tranny???

I do not know what year this is but a C^ is not an "E" series so it is a strictly hydraulically controlled transmission, I would say you need to rebuild it.

Can I install 95 mustang trans in 302 carburater motor

I would not use any one that has a transmission control module unless yours already has one. They do make TCMs aftermarket but you have to wire everything in and make sure its compatable for your application.

How much a will cost to repair a 1999 volvo s80 transmission

Hi,

Your transmission does not give the greatest service in the world. it is a GM design and they were prone to have internal problems. There has also been a couple of software updates that Volvo has put out since your vehicle was manufactured. It would be my recommendation to have the transmission properly serviced, (to make sure we have the correct fluid level and condition) and to be sure we had the latest software installed in the Transmission Control Module before we condemn the transmission.They usually do not repair the transmission. They replace it and would cost you around $2500. If it doesn't help, you may consider Aamco transmissions for this repair. They are experienced in rebuilding vs. replacing your existing unit and that may be more economical than replacing the unit. They will also give a 12/12 warranty on their work.

Let me know,if needed further assistance.

Hope i helped you.

Thanks for using ' Fixya ' and have a nice day!!
