Always putting on good content, thank you

Great job, you're amazing, watching you from Tanzania 🇹🇿

Hey Gary. I got the same trans in my Escape. In fact, I rebuilt a core in my spare time to have on hand. My mind is missing something. The oil comes off the center of the turbine and is directed into the stator the same whether it is in gear or not. Converter spins the same in both scenarios. Why just the noise when placed in gear??? PS: Your casual viewers should know when you gave the closeup of the pump that you meant the stator SHAFT was stripped. The stator is inside the converter. Semantics I know but for those who don't know, it is simply additional info. Good video.

Great video, Gary. The 6f35 on my 2016 transit connect started to give me problems. I removed the cover of the valve body, and i found metal shavings. The noise when i was driving it was different than the one in the video, and i had problems getting it into gear...at times it felt like it was not going to engage at all but then there was a big pop and it would engage not fully but allowed me to make ot home. From what I've found it might be the TCbut looking at your video i think i will need a new pump as well. Still doing research as to what would be more convenient, purchase a new, used or rebuild the transmission. Mahalos for the informational video.

you may have a clogged filter, this would mean the trans would need to be overhauled

I am a Ford tech. Inspect the flex plate very carefully. They have a high fail rate.

i have one in my bay now first time seeing this now in know thanks

The fluid in that unit was impressively terrible shape! The new pump sure is affordable! Thanks for sharing.

Mercon LV fluid gets really nasty like that.

Thank you for this. What could have caused that shearing? Assembly error? Converter shifting position?

I was surprised how bad the fluid looked for 20k miles

What kind of silicone do you recommend when putting the housings back together?

I use High temp black silicone, I believe that is what my supplier sends me

The Big 3 just make the worst crap these days.

Mine is making that noise at idle and gets louder when shifting any guess? Nice work

Does the noise go away in park and neutral?

probably the filter which i changed

Really low miles for an '18 model. See if Ford or someone is interested in getting that stripped part to look at. I'm thinking it didn't get heat treated correctly. Rockwell hardness was too soft. Should have physically never happened.
