TRANSMISSION
TROUBLESHOOTING
CONTROL
CABLES
The majority
of
transmission difficulties arise
as
a result
of
improper clutch adjustments (manual transmissions) or prob-
lems with control cables (hydraulic transmissions) rather than
from
problems with the transmission itself.
HURTH clutches,
in
particular, are
very
sensitive
to
improper
cable adjustments.
If
you experience operating problems with the transmission,
shut the engine down. First check the transmission-oil level,
then have a helper move the cockpit shift lever through the
full range - from neutral to full forward, back
to
neutral,
into full reverse, and back
to
neutral-
while you observe
the actuating lever on the transmission.
If
the remote is stiff
to operate, break the cable loose at the transmission and try
again.
If
it
is
still stiff, check the cable for kinks or exces-
sively tight bends, and check any linkage for binding. A new
cable and perhaps a new linkage mechanism may be needed.
While the cable
is
loose, shift the transmission in and out of
gear using the lever on the side
of
the transmission
to
make
sure there's
no
binding inside the case.
If the transmission passes these tests, crank the engine and
have a helper put it in forward and reverse while you observe
the propeller shaft;
if
the shaft isn't turning, the transmission
needs professional attention.
If
it does turn but there's
no
thrust, check
to
see you still have a propeller
on
the end
of
the shaft
or,
if
you have a folding or feathering propeller, that
it isn't stuck in the "no pitch" position.

OIL
COOLERS
The continued flow of raw water through the cooler will,
in
time, erode the inside of the cooler causing cross
leaks
to
occur.
These internal cooler leaks will cause
one
of the
fol-
lowing two problems:
1. Transmission fluid
will
leak into the
flow
of
raw
water
and
be
discharged overboard through the engine exhaust.
A
loss
of
transmission fluid will
cause
the
transmission
to
fail.
2.
The raw water
will
leak into the transmission
fluid
caus-
ing
an
increase
in
transmission fluid. This contaminated
fluid
will
appear
as
strawberry cream.
The
transmission
will eventually
fail.
Either case requires
an
immediate response:
1. Install a
new
oil
cooler.
2.
Refill the transmission with DEXTRON III
ATF.
If
water has contaminated the fluid, the transmission fluid
needs to be cleaned out and replaced
with
fresh
fluid.
It
will
take several fluid changes
to
get rid of the contamination.
Check your dipstick each time until it appears
as
pure trans-
mission fluid. Change the transmission filter
and
clean out
the fluid lines that connect
to
the cooler.
If
the transmission fails to shift properly, it
will
most likely
need the attention
of
a qualified transmission service
facility.
A transmission cooler may last ten years or more
but,
in
some circumstances, depending
on
operating
hours,
tropical
waters, maintenance, etc. it might only last half that
time.
WESTERBEKE recommends having a spare cooler aboard
