That=E2=80=99s very interesting. Seems like they got the whole thing =
into a muddle on Day One and never really recovered.

Makes trial and error, one of my usual fallbacks, seem quite sensible in =
the circs.

So when filling from rebuild add the extra 1/4 pint  ....   5 3/4 pints

Later editions may have carried the correction  and side and top shift =

Well that=E2=80=99s interesting as I will be buying the oil for the =
BN3=E2=80=99s gearbox this week. It is a 100S gearbox with a 22% OD that =
has been completely rebuilt and apart from the oil used in the assembly =
it=E2=80=99s completely empty.

=20

My 1968 BMC Workshop Manual (AKD 1179H) that I bought new in September =
1974 for $7.00 states that the oil capacity for a side-shift gearbox =
fitted with an OD is 6 =C2=BC imp pints, 7.5 US pints and 3.55 litres. I =
states the same for a centre-shift box as well. So I will be buying a 4 =
litre container and store what=E2=80=99s left over for the inevitable =
leaks.

Talking about leaks I was watching a Jay Leno video of his Daimler SP250 =
over the weekend and he made mention that all things over 50 or 60 years =
of age are bound to leak.

Offhand, I'd believe the workshop manual first.  If you're doing a =
drain-and-fill, you don't know for sure how much residual oil is left so =
you have to go by the dipstick anyway.

Hi,

1)      My car=E2=80=99s Driver=E2=80=99s Handbook page 7, (AKD 3915A) =
tells me that:

my MkII BT7=E2=80=99s gearbox takes 5.75 imp pts (6.90 US pts)=20

its overdrive takes 1.33 imp pts (1.75 US pts)

=20

2)      My BMC Workshop Manual (AKD 1179D) tells me that:

gearbox               4.0 imp pts (4.80 US pts)

Total gearbox, overdrive fitted, 5.25 imp pts (6.30 US pts)

=20

3)      My Haynes manual goes for:

Standard box:- 5 imp pts

With overdrive:- 6.25 pts             =20

=20

4)      My Autopress manual (Kenneth Ball) goes for:

Standard box:- 5 imp pts

With overdrive:- 6.25 pts

=20

ie only Haynes and Autopress agree.

I=E2=80=99ve had this Healey for +/- 20 years and I=E2=80=99ve never =
noticed these discrepancies! I seem to have survived by using the dip =
stick, but I=E2=80=99d bet that I=E2=80=99ve overfilled more than once.

=20

Any ideas? I don=E2=80=99t recall this coming up before.....

=20

Thanks,

Simon

(And I didn=E2=80=99t mention Redline once!)
