well, on basically all 3 of the "valves", I tried 2 things (neither with any effect, really). I would push on the face of the valve and no effect. I could see it move maybe maybe a millimeter if that. Next I pried from the bottom upward on the peg half of it and once again, no cheese. I could see the fluid bulge out a bit as if maybe a millimeter of movement had happened. When I pulled off the retaining ring around the face and pushed up to my surprise it still had no range of motion at all. I then tapped it gently but firmly with a huge mallet and it popped out. I dont know much about AOD's but that just doesnt seem right. I dont see how it can compress the band if the peg doesnt telescope from the housing.
This transmission, I know for a fact that it sat for years unused. The inside looked pristine.
