SUBJECT:
NEW CELLULOSE COATED OIL PAN GASKET
MODELS AFFECTED: 1964-1987 WITH THM400 TRANSMISSION
On July 22, 1986 (Julian Date 203), a new latex-coated cellulose (hard, fiber material) pan gasket went into production on the THM400 transmission.
The gasket improves sealing since it resists being "crushed", unlike the cork (soft material) gasket previously used.
The new gasket can be ordered separately using the following information:
