After overhaul, complaints such as no reverse, delayed reverse engagement and delayed drive engagement may be caused by mis-alignment of the manual valve.
To index the manual valve, install the valve body and all linkage including the detent spring. Place the selector linkage in neutral and check the position of the manual valve. The front edge of the 2nd land should be within .030 of flush with the front edge of the valve body casting.
Replacement of the detent spring may be required to achieve proper alignment of the valve.
