I went to put in the new torque converter on the TH400. I saw this. Am I wrong or does it look like there's no actual seal and it's just RTV? I know there's supposed to be a seal there but I can't quite tell. The new one is orange all over and it's confusing me. I couldn't get much movement with the seal puller but again I can't tell if I'm doing it right because I can't be sure there's an actual seal to pull
EDIT: I now realize I can see where the seal is bent at the top. There is one. My one track mind was expecting orange so much (because the new one is) that it threw me for a loop. I'll fight with it more tomorrow maybe
