Transmission Parts GM Valve Body End Plug

Symptoms:

Pressure loss
Burnt clutches
Shift concerns
TCC apply concerns

Cause:

Worn end plugs allow vital actuator/solenoid feed pressure to leak from the various regulator valve bores. When the clutch select valve end plug leaks, reverse pressure is reduced or lost.

Correction:

Renew hydraulic control and restore critical circuit pressures by installing Sonnax drop-in O-ringed end plug kit.

OE end plugs are designed to capture the valve train in the bore, retain critical oil pressure and function as a spring or valve stop. Repetitive spring movement, valve impacts and abrupt fluid pressure variations promote wear of the end plug circumference and bore I.D. surface, eventually allowing vital oil pressure to escape the circuit.

GM Gen. 2 6T30/40/45/50 and Gen. 3 6T35/31/41/46/51 valve bodies have end plugs at the various clutch regulator valve bores that are susceptible to the wear conditions described above. When actuator/solenoid feed pressure leaks out of the affected circuit, various shift concerns and burnt clutches will result. A worn TCC regulator end plug or clutch select valve end plug allows critical oil pressure loss leading to drivability complaints. Reduce or eliminate leakage and restore hydraulic integrity by installing Sonnax O-ringed end plug kit 144510-14K.
