cortina-city 141 Posted February 10, 2018 Correct Dipstick I hope? (in the engine not the drivers seat) :jester: new one from burtons Jayne its a really nice gearbox, 3rd is good on the hills Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Danish 294 Posted February 10, 2018 Jayne its a really nice gearbox, 3rd is good on the hills SWMBO had one in her Sierra. But it leaked at the back, so up steep hills clouds of smoke would come through the centre console cubby box - presumably ATF dripping onto the exhaust. :blink: 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cortina-city 141 Posted February 10, 2018 im just making a road test vid of the new engine ill upload later. for anyone fitting an A4LD box - engine needs to be set up corect in order for the vac pressure to corectly work the up and downshifts. I have noticed that with the new engine and head/cam all dialled in with vernier and using timing disc, the gearbox now changes flawless, prior to this, on the old engine the shifts were not to satisfaction 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pete-H 66 Posted February 11, 2018 (edited) Love it Pete The dash cam is so much better though we are now in 2018 not 17 as the dash cam shows. Don't forget the national speed limit is 70mph and the dash cam show what you are doing. :oops: Edited February 11, 2018 by Pete-H Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
