Well, people do, or did at least, sell the gauge and all its fittings ie =
ready to go. I don=E2=80=99t recall/know who does it and where except =
that here in the UK Dave at Overdrive Spares sells them. About =
=C2=A340:00, I think. Plus shipping, of course.

Yes, and I agree with Michael, and Simon's note; a pressure test is in =
order. Problem always being obtaining a gauge and fittings.  However, it =
is imperative that the pressure be 400+lbs. or it is not producing a =
good overdrive exchange. Electrics are one thing, and pressure =
another-then, wear factor a third.

If it does not hit 400, you might as well rebuild the unit, or at least =
clean it and retest. Disengagement is a result of the pressure being =
released, and the 8 springs pushing the clutch back to direct drive.  =
You need the 400 lbs. to overcome the 8 springs, and quickly move the =
clutch forward to OD. My thoughts, Hank
