Mine is old and the seal leaks, so I have been using grease for years. The box itself is precise and tight so it seems a shame to have to remove it just for the seal If the seal didn't leak I would u

If memory serves - the brass one was the one that sticks. The threads are at the hex end, the idea being that the end fits into the body of the oil filter assy with pretty close tolerences. This mean

Yes your pressure is low. The relief valve has nohing to do with the 15 at idle. It is a relief valve meaning that it releases excess pressure from the system. If your system cannot even come up to t

The operation is not subtl;e - you will KNOW if it is engaging. It's like shifting up a gear (quite a big one). The speedo will NOT drop - the revs will. No it doesn't take time to build up pressure.

The pressure relief valve releases excess pressure at high rpm. It is common to dismantle the valve and shim the spring to raise the pressure to 50 or 60 pounds. However, this will not solve the low

It is surprising that the overdrive works with the 80/90 oil as this usually makes the clutch inside the O/d slip. I would suggest going to engine oil, but preferably not the 10/50. I would suggest s
