When I used to rebuild A-Type overdrives, I would "lap in" the surface that the ball sits on.? I had a spare ball of the correct size, and I welded a small rod to it; /html/fot/2018-03/msg00003.html (10,242 bytes)
3. [Fot] Type A OD pressure test (score: 1): Author: britcars at bellsouth.net (barry rosenberg); Date: Tue, 6 Mar 2018 11:30:36 +0000 (UTC); I used to put the ball in a tap in down with a blunt punch. As the case is aluminum and the ball hard steel, it made a very nice seat for itself. This can be done without pulling the OD apart. Just p; /html/fot/2018-03/msg00004.html (11,100 bytes)

I especially liked Jack?s idea of hand-lapping in the aluminum seats with a ball welded to a rod. I?m guessing that m; /html/fot/2018-03/msg00006.html (13,989 bytes)

[Fot] Type A OD pressure test (score: 1): Author: charly at mitchelplumbing.com (Charly Mitchel); Date: Tue, 6 Mar 2018 10:17:37 -0800; I believe the answer is the water molecules are larger than the air molecules, which makes them easier to pass through the space.

(O-rings, balls & seats, accumulator piston rings, etc.) but to test the mechanical movement of the overdrive internals. Greg?s test showed; /html/fot/2018-03/msg00015.html (17,966 bytes)
