A few days ago Randall suggested the answer could be found in
http://www.vintagetriumphregister.org/maintain/TransRebuild/OverDriveA02.pdf.
As usual Randall is absolutely right. I adjusted the lever using the Haynes
rcommendation with the 3/16" lock piece and as it said in the VTR write up
my O/D did'nt work.So to plan B in the write up.However it occurred to me
that not everyone will have a dial gauge (including me) to measure the "up"
movement of the ball.
So I used a drill bit of the diameter to fit the top plug hole with marker
pen ink and marked the "down" position of the ball on the drill. Then on
energising the solenoid and playing with the pinch bolt I was able to get
the .030" to .040" lift and confirm it by marking the "up" position of the
ball. You can measure the distance between the two marks with feelers.
And praise be my O/D works again!
YMMV of course,
