1997 Land Cruiser
298K miles.
Have never dropped the pan on the transmission, I've always done drain and fill fluid replacements or an occasional fluid 'exchange' using the transmission pump. But never a filter replacement (or cleaning) so its time now (if not overdue).
Additionally, I am about to add a sending unit to the transmission pan for a temperature gauge I am going to install. While I am in there....I will probably bump up the main line pressure.
So initially....I will want to use a pan 'Gasket', in case I need to go back into the transmission (to return line pressure setting).
But after that....what is the recommendation here? Use FIPG or stay with the gasket (combination of both)?
Any preferred FIPG?
