Having 400 lbs. Of accumulator pressure is a good thing. From there on if its slipping out while engaged in overdrive the the cone clutch is in very bad condition or the brake ring is worn, polished to a slippery shine. If it is slipping without the overdrive engaged (direct drive) then I would be looking at the uni-directional clutch. </div><div><br></div><div>At my shop with the above situation presented to me I would be pulling the gearbox and taking the overdrive apart to see what is going on.</div><div><br></div><div><br></div><div><div style="font-size:100%">Steve Yott</div></div><br><br><br>-------- Original message --------<br>From: Dave <dlhogye@comcast.net> <br>Date: 06/10/2016 12:33 PM (GMT-06:00) <br>To: Friends of Triumph <Fot@autox.team.net> <br>Subject: [Fot] Overdrive problem <br> <br><br>Hello Friends,<br>A friend is having problems with a freshly serviced overdrive transmission in his street TR3. It disengages under acceleration. <br>The Brit shop that is working on it can not figure out the problem. I've been told that it is building a little over 400psi and I guess that is not enough. <br>The shop is really struggling with the problem and I know the FOT has discussed this problem before.<br>I'd like to be able to share tips and suggestions if anyone can help.<br><br>Thanks,<br>Dave H.<br><br>Sent from my iPad<br>_______________________________________________<br>fot@autox.team.net<br><br>http://www.fot-racing.com<br><br>Donate: http://www.team.net/donate.html<br>Archive: http://www.team.net/archive<br>Forums: http://www.team.net/forums<br>Unsubscribe/Manage: http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/fot/tr4@wi.rr.com<br><br><br></body>
