So I recently got the Cummins back in my F350 (curse this truck), it never shifted good with the 5r110 so I swapped it to a ZF6. Well, now come to find out the internal pump in the ZF6 must be bad as it's not circulating fluid.... I have tried blowing air in both hoses (as I am not sure which is the pressure and which is return), I THINK I figured out which is the pressure line, but it doesn't consistently push fluid out of it.
So I am thinking, would it work to put an in line fluid pump to circulate fluid? I really don't want to pull the transmission again, but I guess there may not be another option other than rebuilding it. I can't find anyone local that rebuilds the ZF6's either, I don't really want to do it myself, but might not have a choice.
This is the pump I was thinking about running, it has a 30min duty cycle, I am striking out on finding a pump that isn't hundreds of dollars, I hate to spend that much on something that might not work.
Anyone have any great ideas on a fix for this?
