Scott:
Esposito builds them very tight. You need to drain the tranny and O/D
and refill with Redline MTL. Use MTL, not any of the weight specific MT
Redlines. They have other undesirable additives. In fact, the bottle label
states that. This has fixed every one of the tight O/D's I/we have
found...right Larry Y?

J-type overdrive reluctant to disengage
So I have my new J-type overdrive
trans in the Spit and took it out down the back road near my house tonight.
The overdrive engages and sometimes disengages. But a lot of the time it
remains in overdrive despite flipping the switch off.
The trouble shooting
section of the manual lists several possible causes (none of which I like
because they sound like removal of the trans). Sticking solenoid, sticking
cone clutch, clogged control orifice, faulty wiring.
I wouldn't think wiring
is the issue if it works right some of the time. Any chance this relates to
running it at lower revs than I would on track?
Freshly rebuilt box from
Quantum Mechanics, John Esposito.
