The OD slipped under torque when cold, once warmed, slippage was reduced. Whether it was the oil or a worn out OD; /html/spitfires/2001-01/msg00240.html (7,651 bytes)

6. Re: Alternative gear lubes (score: 1): Author: Donald H Locker <dhl@chelseamsl.com>; Date: Thu, 11 Jan 2001 22:09:35 -0500 (EST); [...] Likely not ruined yet -- the OD should be engaged in 1st or 2nd gears. Too much torque for the OD clutch, as you've discovered. Don't keep trying to use it down there, and it should be OK. Don; /html/spitfires/2001-01/msg00249.html (7,586 bytes)

8. Re: Alternative gear lubes (score: 1): Author: Trevor Boicey <tboicey@brit.ca>; Date: Fri, 12 Jan 2001 02:28:25 -0500; Are you sure your clutch isn't just slipping? The OD joint that usually slips is when the cone clutch is on the brake ring. That should only be in OD, which shouldn't happen in 1st or 2nd. -- Trevor; /html/spitfires/2001-01/msg00262.html (7,936 bytes)
9. Re: Alternative gear lubes (score: 1): Author: Dean.Dashwood@enron.com; Date: Fri, 12 Jan 2001 09:29:13 +0000; As Donald said, you shouldn't be able to use O/D in 1st or 2nd gear - it's not designed to work. The power to the O/D switch should be routed as follows: 12V -> little switch on top front of gearbox; /html/spitfires/2001-01/msg00265.html (9,353 bytes)

In my limited studies of these units, it's not that the engine produces too much power. Not by a long shot; /html/spitfires/2001-01/msg00268.html (9,604 bytes)
