Tips for any 92-93 owner replacing the TC Solenoid.
Well to get the pan off is pretty self explanatory. Although one exhaust clamp with a stud/nut does get in the way of 1 pan bolt. Just take the nut off, and move the clamp outta the way.
Take not of how the solenoid was routed, and the colored connections locations. To get the little colored clips off, simply push them outward. May take some effort, but they'll come out.
To get one bolt out that holds the TC solenoid, you need to remove one pressure switch. It's a 22mm or 7/8. It blocks one of the TC solenoid bolts. Once you get the pressure switch out, you are good to go.
One connection on the driver side, kinda hidden near the valve body. It held in place with a tab. Too tight to put fingers up there. I used a long, skinny pic. Worked like a charm. Then, just pull the connector out.
