Hello,

I am in the middle of a transmission fluid and filter change. When I lowered the pan, I found part of a broken spring the pan. It is about 3/4" long and about 3/8" or 1/2" in diameter.

I'm going back outside to look around, but if someone could help steer me to where the spring may have come from, please let me know. I'll check back in a little while.

Thanks,
Greg

Thanks for the reply.

The plunger (if I'm looking at the right one) does spring back.

This is a hook type return spring that I found.
Could give return action to something, or could be used to hold something in place.

Still Searching.

I think I have found it in the service manual. I think it is the "engage return spring". Now to find that part on the trans. The picture is an extreme close up and there is little in the way of a reference point.

Still hunting.

That spring is for the throttle valve lever; the TV cable is attached to the lever.

The kickdown cable attaches to a J-hook assembly, on the left side of the trans, that is spring activated.

Perhaps this is what it goes to?

Yep, it was the engage return spring.

Finding that thing in the pan gave me great concern.My manuals came in handy again.

Thank to all who replied. it's intresting to note that every response was the correct anwser.
This site is a lifesaver.
