Greetings Nelson, I just very quickly scanned your Draft A type O/D information and I wanted to immediately let you know how impressed I am with the content. I've spent the last several months of wee

Not to detract from Nelson's fine work, but there is a far simpler and just as effective method of testing your OD (and gearbox) than building a stand and purchasing a large electric motor to turn i

Hi James Did you solve your leak, I rebuilt my A type and it too leaks like a tea strainer, where did you find your leak, I think I am going to have to go the test bed route, though I should have lot

For whatever reason, the leak I found most maddening was caused by a cracked OD drain plug gasket. Not having the correct replacement on hand, I cut one from ordinary gasket material, which was too t

Yes, except then I would have to have a different tool for each type of gearbox I would want to test. The tool was made universal enough for me to use it on Healeys, MGs, Triumphs or whatever else I

Kai, you're absolutely correct, a drill is a great way to do a quick test on a gearbox & OD. I've used just such an arrangement. My problem was that a drill makes a hell of a racket that can really g

Agreed Nelson, not only does it take a lot of time to hold it for long periods it also turns your forearms into mush! I built a wooden cradle which holds the drill in and upside down position (handl

Randall, I have to chase down a leak in my GBX/OD this fall when the car is off the road. Your report on the shifter o-ring rods leaking and dripping down on the OD and the big brass cover.... is ve

Brian et al -- From what I've heard, it is not uncommon for the big brass plug itself to become distorted, as it's fairly soft metal. Overtightening or dropping the gearbox on the plug can bend it, i

FWIW, the O-rings sold by Moss don't seem to fit very well, and still leak. Herman van den Akker makes brass filler rings to fill the extra gap. I've no idea. But, the higher viscosity would reduce f
