BW 72c test

Post by tjsb »

Dear all,

just rebuilt a BW72c after a sticky shift needed sorting. Note less than £100 to do it, so good value. The linked video on You Tube shows the special tool I made to test gearbox pressure and all is well, although I should have used PTFE. If anyone wants, I can lend them the tool to test their gearboxes - it screws into the blanking plug hole. Mine is BSP, just in case you have different threads. Also have one made up for NPT threads. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XysNalMxOvU
