Band adjustment would be a good idea if you have not checked that. I also have the Lokar throttle and kickdown cable system and had to add a spring at the transmission lever to return it all the way. I am including some links below that helped me when dealing with my 727 issues...

This makes sense to me. I did add a little last time I checked it and the stick showed low. Maybe is should have left it since it was still running fine. I will leave it that way and hopefully it will stop as some point.

When I took my 727 transmission to get rebuilt I also added a Summit deep pan that adds 2 quarts. It shifts great and does not leak anywhere but a small drop every now and then out of the bottom of bellhousing. The car usually gets driven every other week when I am not driving my pickup truck...

i removed the fuel pump and it indeed was leaking oil from the vent. I even witnessed it before I removed it as I accelerated the car manually from under the hood. I ordered the new one and noticed the arm shapes are different. The old one is the straight one and new one curved. Was the one...

Is it possible for a fuel pump to leak oil from the weep hole? I keep chasing a small oil leak on the passenger side of the engine around the fuel pump. It creates a light oil coat on the front of the block and head. I removed the pump last week and made sure the gasket was good and it was...

I had a similar issue with my Coronet 400. After I mildly modified the original 318 it seemed like it was building too much crankcase pressure. Pushing oil out of the breather on long trips. I purchased and ME Wagner dual adjustable pcv valve and it works great. Pricey but worth it. Oil...

I installed them in my coronet with 318 and they work great. I did add a spring at the transmission throttle bracket, helps the transmission shift points.

Thank you for the quick replies. I was not referring to the factory knurling but a specific area right where the seal lip rides. Not sure if the images attached clearly show it.

I will be attempting to fixt the rear main seal leak for a second time this coming week. I took all precautionary methods the first time around to fix it but was not successful. After doing some more research I am finding tips that I did not know before. Like to clean any imperfections on the...

I am using a bosh mechanical gauge but substituted the plastic tube with copper. Works just great. The electronic version of this gauge never worked for me.

Feeling defeated!!! I installed my stock pan and gasket and voila no more pan leaks. Last time I deviate from using my original parts. Bad news is, I can now tell the rear main seal is leaking. I had replaced it but must have done something incorrectly. I made sure to install the large...

Ok update on the oil pan / rms leak saga. I purchased an inspection camera earlier that allowed me to snake it between transmission and engine. Happy to report the cam plug looked dry and no evidence of leaks. I also checked the galley plugs and no leak on them either. I also purchased a...

Yes, I actually installed a me Wagner dual flow adjustable pcv. Which works gret.

I have not checked it. I did some work on the engine about two years ago and it looked good, so I left it alone. Maybe I should have changed it, but nothing was leaking at the time so I did not think it should be changed. Attached is a picture during that work. What looks like oil around the...

I just finished replacing the oil gasket and pan. Before that the rear main seal. This is the third time I replace the pan and gasket and it leaked again. No leak with just the car idling, but once I get it over 2000 rpm it leaks. I am using the Milodon 4 piece gasket with a summit racing...

Well, I first snugged the bolts up with my hand ratchet, enough so the pan made contact with the block. Then I went from the middle out with my craftsman digital torque wrench to 15 foot pounds. But, I will definitely check that first.

Thank you! I needed to hear this. Very demoralizing to do all that work and end up with worse results. A first world problem in the grand scheme of things .

Just finished replacing the rear main seal, oil pump, oil pan and gasket. Went for a drive this morning and it was great. The oil pressure was very steady at about 50 psi on the highway and 20 at idle. ....... However, when I went home for lunch I peeked underneath and sadly saw it was...

I rebuilt my 727 and used this deep pan from summit along with a genuine Chrysler gasket that has raised lips in the perimeter to stop leaks. It’s can also be reused if needed. That pan is deeper that stock and allows for more fluid, which helps the performance of the transmission. It’s been...

I just finished installing a new summit racing oil pan and Milodon crush proof gasket on my coronet 318 / 727 transmission. Everything fit great and no leaks so far. But when I got under the car to inspect I heard a rattle from the transmission cover plate. Looking at it closely it seems...
