GoGuy Posted October 8, 2013 Report Share Posted October 8, 2013 Time to sort out my non-operating A type overdrive. Can anybody confirm the size and thread type necessary to connect a suitable pressure gauge so that I can confirm what, if any, pressure I'm getting? If that turns out to be OK, then I can work my way through all the other suspect areas. Thanks GoGuy Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I know that I have seen the info. I'm looking for some time ago on this TR Reg. site, but so far can't turn it up. Regards GoGuy Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JayeM Posted October 8, 2013 Report Share Posted October 8, 2013 GoGuy, give Overdrive Repair Services a call on 0114 248 2632 - they're very helpful guys and will be able to tell you straight away, I'm sure. Cheers, John Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AlanT Posted October 8, 2013 Report Share Posted October 8, 2013 (edited) What we have all been doing is getting a spare plug and joining the gauge to it with an adaptor. The plug also retains the sping and plunger so I dont think you can simply screw a gauge in directly. Edited October 8, 2013 by AlanT Quote Link to post Share on other sites

AlanT Posted October 8, 2013 Report Share Posted October 8, 2013 (edited) If you get a plug but cant join the gauge to it get in touch and I'll help you out. If you check the photo of the one I made then you will see that you also need to ensure the gauge clears the top-cover. Edited October 8, 2013 by AlanT Quote Link to post Share on other sites
