When did the TH350 automatic transmission come out?
When did the TH350 automatic transmission come out?
The TH350 was introduced in 1969 as a replacement to the Powerglide 2 speed automatic transmission. While the phase-in began in 1969, it was not complete until the 1973 when the Powerglide fully phased out. This transmission was in production for about 15 years, being fully replaced by the 700R4in 1984.
Why is my transmission making an irregular noise?
If the transmission produces an irregular noise, the noise is likely coming from the transmission’s pump. The pump will produce noise if the transmission’s fluid level is either too high or too low, if the fluid is contaminated with water, or if the transmission’s driving gear teeth are damaged.
Why is my transmission not working on my 350?
If the transmission fails to propel the vehicle forward when the transmission selector is in the “D” position, the problem is probably a lack of transmission fluid, a linkage which needs adjustment or low fluid pressure.
What kind of casing is a TH350 transmission made of?
The transmission casing is made of cast aluminum. The TH350 was also known for its quite short length, with an overall length of 21.75”. That also converts into a lighter transmission that carries a weight of 120 pounds. The TH350 takes about 4 quarts in the pan, and then requires additional based on the torque converter being used.

What does it mean when your transmission is whining?
Whining indicates a problem with the transmission fluid pump and could be due to a low level or a failing pump. Humming is usually an indication that there is bearing going bad in your transmission, but can also be confused with carrier bearings and wheel bearings so make sure to check all those bearings before jumping to conclusions.
Why does my car make a whining noise when I shift gears?
If you hear a constant whining noise, accompanied by a slip in the gears as the transmission automatically shifts, it points to low transmission fluids.
