When it Rains, it Pours (Or, BlackAeronaut's Automotive Woes, an Ongoing Saga)

[Rajvik]

the Burbie's tranny reminds me of the transmission on the old 4cyl tow tractors that we use on Marine airbases. There is a spring that modulates how hard the gears shift, (they are automatic) and there is an adjustment bolt to the outside to allow you to adjust the tension on the spring. YOU ARE SPECIFICALLY INSTRUCTED NOT TO TRY AND REMOVE THIS BOLT. doing so will not remove the bolt but will cause the spring to fall down in the transmission pan causing you to have to pull the damn thing with it up on a lift and put it back together as the tow tractor is at that point stuck in first gear.
