No, I don't have a copy of the ATSG manual.

I'm looking at a 0 - 200psi gauge (Google: G25-BD200-4LB)
And a 0 - 600psi gauge (G25-BD2600-4LB)

Grand total $24.25 with shipping from Automation Direct.

I have to admit I have a bad feeling about all this, I think I should just get another transmission.

When I first got the car the transmission fluid looked something like that gray anti-sieze grease, somehow it shifted fine.

Then when I re-installed the trans I didn't quite get the TC drive ears lined up and broke the front pump.

Then I replaced the front pump and now it won't shift out of 2nd.

Now I'm going to hook up these pressure gauges and probably find that I screwed up the front pump install and then what?

Pull the transmission, fix the pump, reinstall, pray it works.

I think I'd rather try my luck with a used trans, it's not like the one I have is any sort of gem.

Feel free to talk me out of it but my gut is telling me to quit messing around with this thing.

Anyone want to trade an old Volvo for an '87 300sdl?
