Default Auto trans. filter.
Should the filter on the TH400 just dangle from the mounting bolt ? The bolt is tight but you can lift the filter about 1/4 in. and has slight scuff marks on the inside of the pan. I'm thinking this may be normal to place the pickup as low as possible, just want to see what you guys think . Thanks

Yes they just sort of hang there. Make sure the tube is inserted correctly though
