Can the pan be hotter then the fluid?
Can the pan be hotter then the fluid?
Okay, this may be a REALLY stupid question but I can't figure it out.. I just had a tranny temp gauge installed(in the pan) and I don't think it is accurate- I pulled a trailer and the gauge slowly crept up to 150, but I have a laser thermometer and when I check the pan right around the sending unit it reads 180 or so.. :-/ i think the brand is maximum performance..
My tranny runs right around 145 according to my Gryphon and many other owners of the Gryphon report temps right around 150. So if your thermo-meter is accurate then yes, the pan does get hotter.
