When installing a new OT...

Things that is seldom mentioned... Do new trannies need to be broke in, or do they sound the same from the start and forewoard to the bitter end?

I guess that it's the same for most trannies then... I got my Drake -132 from Chris M. the other day, and after about 15-20 hours it started to open up real good... :wink:

Hi Ralle,

and I'm nearly absolutely shure that no one is able to explain technically such a transformer behavior :shrug:

Maybe it's a voodoo thing :hide:

Robert
