Thanks for the replies, I’m pretty sure that the trans is stock for the car, beam.
Changing the trans oil is definately something I’ll do before getting on the road, Robin. Tell me about the reverse switch. I seem to have a pair of fried wires dropping down somewhere under the trans. Is this switch something more than a simple contact switch, indicating when you are in reverse? Does it need to be active in order to get it in reverse? I hope it’s just low hydraulics, bad gear oil… or maybe this switch?

Hi Ron,

The wires you are talking about could either be the reverse light wires or they may have been for the overdrive switch to make the overdrive circuit active when in third or fourth gear. If you have some holes below the bumper bar on both sides, it may have had reverse lights mounted at some stage. The switch does not have to be active, but having fried wires may cause other issues (blowing fuses).

Regards, Robin.
