Some 1982 THM 125C transmissions may exhibit some oil foaming. This oil foaming is noticeable while checking transmission oil levels. When the oil

Remove the valve body cover and RTV sealant.
2.
Disconnect the electrical wires from the plastic electrical connector in the side of the case cover, and remove the electrical connector.

Replace the existing manual valve with Part Number 8643316.

6.
Reconnect manual rod retaining clip to the manual valve securely.
7.
Remove the auxiliary valve body cover and replace it with Part Number 8643326.
8.
Replace the valve body cover and RTV sealant.
If oil foaming continues after the above steps have been performed, replace the case cover.
