TV boost valve ck kit

[SIXBANGR]

I have the snap ring out but the valve won't come out. Any trick to this? It is all the way up with no spring pressure to help pop it out.

Did the valve drop down at all? Did you try pushing on it and releasing it quick? It is spring loaded.

It pushed up enough to to the snap ring out. Now it is in with no spring to it. My magnet is way to week to pull it down.

I may have to drill a hole in the end and pull it out with a screw.

If you can't get it out by pushing on it and releasing quickly you probably have burrs around the snap ring groove. You can try sand them with some fine paper. You can get some rare earth element magnets and pull on it with a steel rod. Be careful with the magnet because it will be about impossible to get it off the sleeve once it's on there. You should just epoxy the magnet to the steel rod so you can get it off the sleeve. I've never had one I couldn't get out though.

worst case, assuming no burrs and its just sticky, you can put the filter+pan back on, throw some fluid in it and start the engine for a moment. It will blow the valve into the pan for you.

(this is also what happens if you don't get the snap ring in the groove correctly when reinstalling it, which is how I know about it......)

how much fluid?

 

[TurboBob]

It might do it with no fluid, as there is probably some fluid still left in the pump.

But if it were my car I'd throw 3 quarts in.

let it run for about 5 minutes, and put in all the gears, still there. I don't see or feel any burr's.

That's how I found out

 

[SIXBANGR]

That's how I found out

got it, had to drill it and pull it out with a screw and pliers. Must be a burr some where.

 

[SIXBANGR]

just put 15 miles on it. Feels just like it did stock, so i guess i did it right.
