Tom confirmed the 107 270 04 32 is not the correct B2 piston.   Good to know.  Still have to find the snap ring.   I guess I should have just swapped trans and changed the filter and fluid. From Tom @ CC: Hi Loren, That’s not the correct piston for that trans. You need a 115-270-61-32-81 $80

I was going to put the piston back in because it was not plastic and not of the type of aluminum piston that breaks.  As I was trying to put the plastic top back on, the snap ring slipped out of needlenose and went off to the hinterland.   We've been looking with magnets but can't find it.    s

If you look closely at the picture of the old piston, at circumference of the piston in the trans you can see that there is a shiny ring that is not concentric.   That is a miniature piston ring, just like an engine piston.   There is no nylon seal, just this piston ring.  The gap is toward the
