Hi guys,
 
I just installed a rebuilt engine and tranny in my TR3A (TS81398LO) and things 
were going along well (I love the OD) until the solenoid quit.
 
I removed the solenoid and bench tested it.....it works fine. I polished up 
bore and the plunger and refit.
 
It worked for a while and quit again...back under the car I found the plunger 
resting on the bracket ear. I lifted the plunger (key on, switch on, in 4th)and 
it worked......hmmmmm, I says to meself.....out of range?????
 
Question: Is there a way to check the position of the actuating lever? I set it 
up with a 3/16" drill but I fear that I may have mispositioned the drive pin 
when I made a new actuating shaft. If this is so, then I'd like to get a 
dimension between the bottom of the plunger and the bracket ear when the 
plunger is at rest so I can set the actuating lever correctly.
 
Does this sound like anything you can help me with?
 
Thanks
