Just
like with anything...if you spend enough time doing it you
tend to get good at it, and you learn a few shortcuts to make
your life easier. Having spent twenty plus years solving electrical,
cooling, and fuel related problems on all types of antique
and classic vehicles, I have "earned" a few tech tips that
I want to share with you. Check back
often, as
I will keep adding to the list as time allows. For more tech
tips, check out the Tech

Do NOT use any synthetic transmission oil / grease in a transmission with a Borg Warner Overdrive. The rollers inside of the O/D transmission that free wheel and lockup the transmission will be too slick with the synthetic oil causing the O/D to not lockup. If someone has installed the synthetic transmission lube, you will have to remove the transmission and disassemble it completely and clean all of the individual internal parts. You CANNOT flush out the transmission with it in the car and get all of the synthetic transmission fluid out of the transmission. So use ONLY non-synthetic transmission lubricant as per factory original or modern 80/90 non-synthetic gear lubricants.
