Title: Transmission adjusting article needed
Post by: penton117 on July 24, 2002, 02:29:09 PM
Hi Fellow Poggers,

Once upon-on-time I saw an article copied and posted (somewhere) on adjusting Sachs tranmssions. I thought it was on the Vinduro website, but I can't find it. Does anyone have a copy or know where it could be found?

Thanks,


Don

There was also an article or two on Sach tranny problems and adjustments in the Penton Group Newsletter a few issues back.  Written by Kip Kern and yours truly.   One of the better reasons to being a POG member.

John:  There are a few of some of the POG newsletters that can be purchased.  Send me the issue # and I will check to see if there are any, cost $5.00 to POG.     Bart; If you can send me a copy.  Many things changed inside the tranny over the years, so it would be interesting to see which vintage the article is about.  I do have a very slight rememberance of the article at the time, but cannot remember any details.   If it is worth passing on I sure will be glad to.

It sure would be nice if some of these tech articles from magazines and the newsletter could be posted on this web site. Maybe it could be set up with a password or something so that only POG members would have access. Just a thought. Don't even know if something like this is possable.

Its possible but requires space. megs of storage. it can be expensive. We could use Yahoo . Form a group page and make it accesable for only POG members. that would let us post tech articles and no cost i believe.
 I would like a copy of the article don by Cobb if possible. He helped me a lot back then with tech problems. let me know what it will take to get a copy of his article.
 Doug i dont have any Still keeping tracks befor # 13.
 would it be possible to get all the past issues? who would i need to send the check to?
Thanks,
John
