UNKNOW part to me...

[NEWBMAZDA]

when i was puttin back the transmission together, i saw this part and took it to three different part store and they had no clue what it was. it was bolted to the inside of the transmission and and tip would just stick out. i broke the tip but i cannot figure out what it is...
does anyone know what it is????

 

[GDZKiNGDM]

I wish i could identify this part....(stoned) - and it sticks out you say??

 

[stdntDrvr]

contact prodigy...he's rebuild his trans a couple of times.

 

[NEWBMAZDA]

thanks and yes the tip sticks out

 

[terbow]

I think its to direct the trans fluid, like a channel or maybe a guide of some sort. Its obviously not meant to have any load on it. I could be wrong though. it happened once.

 

[NEWBMAZDA]

yeah thats what i am thinking but what is the name??

 

[GiJoe]

it looks like it's made of plastic, and it's fragile, so I woul say it doesnt carry any load...

 

[NEWBMAZDA]

it is made out of plastic

I'd agree with the coolant channel if it wasnt wide and ha those cut outs on one end.

not coolant like the antifreeze, coolant like for directing oil to various locations for the purpose of cooling them...

take it to your local dealership parts department. they can help you out.

you have WAY too much faith in the monkeys behind the parts counter. every once in a while you'll get a good one, but don't count on it.

word, theres only one guy at the dealership that knows about the MSP and it's a speed dealer... so I always call the parts department and ask em if rob is in before I go up there just to get in an arguement with them... been "escorted" out by the GM cuz I got in a huge arguement with one of the salesman when he asked me why I put a "gay wing like that" on a protege...

 

[Wagonbacker9]

I was speaking for me, not him. lol just extending the idea to something that wasn't quite so.... dee dee dee. lol

I didnt even mean to say coolant (scratch)... lol but yeah, wagon knows I make no sence when tired... but it could be his blinker fluid recirculating channel.
