But it’s still fascinating. Advertisement Photo: vette333! ( Ebay ) Doug Nash was a famous Detroit hot-rodder in the 1960s, who, after retiring from racing, got into the engine and transmission business, eventually developing a manual transmission for General Motors’ mighty Corvette for the C4's 1984 to 1988 model years. That electro-hydraulically controlled two-speed overdrive was automatic, engaging when the driver let off the gas (i.e. under low load), and could be turned on and off via a button on the top of the shifter. Just look at the secrets that YouTuber GearboxVideo reveals in the clip above, including an awesome miniature valve body. This second video gives an explanation of how the clutches work with a planetary gear set to yield an overdrive ratio for your fuel-saving needs in second, third and fourth gear.

You’ll probably end up making just as big a mess on your garage floor. In a great many ways the overdrive was very similar to the old two-speed Powerglide. This particular overdrive unit was originally designed for the Jeep CJ-7 and CJ-5. Chevrolet was working on such a tight deadline for the fourth generation Corvette that there was no time to develop a new unit specifically for the Corvette. All of this was really done to meet the EPA fuel mileage regulations, but at the same time the overdrive fourth gear provided a high speed cruising capability that easily exceeded all the earlier Corvettes.http://svoia-mebel.ru/userfiles/bosch-jigsaw-pst-650-manual.xml
Thanks to the EPA the Corvette was a 150 mile per hour car. There are really three unique, and different, algorithms programmed into the overdrive ECM, one each for second, third and fourth gears. The overdrive ECM logic is incorporated in into the main ECM, or the chip, as it’s commonly known. I guess all computers are not created equal. The real trick, however, is to get rid of all the complicated electronics and turn this transmission into an 8-speed. Well, not quite by accident. Actually Chris Petris, who used to build transmissions for the Corvette Challenge racing series, helped me with this. There’s a switch on the side of the transmission that tells the computer which gear is engaged. The switch is engaged every single time you shift the transmission, whether the overdrive is engaged or not. It’s no wonder that this is usually the first item to wear out. I could hit the switch on the console to turn on the overdrive and it might not actually engage until I drove some twenty miles down the road. You can imagine how aggravating this was. When Chris and I couldn’t locate a replacement switch right away we simply grounded the switch by running a very short shunt from one terminal to the other. This effectively made the OD a completely mechanical unit, operated only by the interior switch, which in my case is on the console. This was like giving me a new Corvette. While Chevrolet designed all the electronics to pass the EPA fuel mileage cycle, I simply wanted a useful transmission.This switch is on the left side of the transmission, and can be seen easily if you have the car on a lift. This switch moved around a little during the years, but it was always the switch towards the rear. You won’t be using this harness. Now make a little jumper wire that fits into the two terminals. You can remove the switch from the transmission and make the jumper wire on your workbench if you prefer. If it takes more than fifteen minutes you’re goofing off.http://www.drupalitalia.org/node/67987
You should treat this situation just as you would any automatic transmission. You’ll even create the same type of mess on your garage floor. Be careful not to lose any of the bolts. Pay particular attention to the sealing edges of the pan. At one time GM used RTV sealant on this surface. That wasn’t such a great idea and now you can get the filter kits with gaskets. If you don’t find a gasket in your car you can assume that the fluid hasn’t been changed in a few years. These overdrive units are notorious leakers. Using a gasket on the surface will solve most of the sealing problems. Once everything is clean you can install a couple of bolts to hold the oil pan back in place and carefully tighten the bolts using a cross pattern to get it nice and even. Mobil 1 is the obvious choice but it seems everyone has a different preference here. Just ask some questions and see what other owners are using. There were some internal changes made and the clutch material is different on the later cars. The best thing you can do for this overdrive is change the fluid and filter once a year, or at least every 15,000 miles. Don’t be shocked if your magnet is covered with steel shavings. That simply means the magnet is doing what is designed to do. You can remove the magnet for cleaning and then place it back in the correct location. You’ll notice that the difference between fourth gear and fourth gear overdrive is almost forty miles an hour at 4,000 rpm. Since most of us don’t drive much over 80 mph on the highway it simply means we get pretty incredible gas mileage. I’m still wondering where you can actually use all that gear ratio. Even at Sebring, which is a very fast course, I only get into 3 rd overdrive. Maybe I need to drive the banking at Daytona.Placing the jumper wire in this switch turned my overdrive into a manual overdrive. All of the stuff that was designed to meet fuel mileage requirements is now gone.http://directealgerie.com/images/3zz-fe-manual.pdf
The switch is easy to modify, but if you have any questions about your abilities just call the Corvette Clinic in Sanford Florida. We have the traditional small block Chevrolet engine bolted to the very traditional T-10 transmission. Then that’s hooked to yet another transmission which looks strangely similar to the old Powerglide from the fifties. Then that second transmission (or overdrive) is bolted to a huge length of aluminum U-channel (the Driveline Support), which in turn is bolted to a differential carrier in the rear of the car. What’s amazing is that it works so well.

Some one pointed out earlier that jumping a switch not connected to any electronics will do nothing. The engine should also be warmed up.Are you replacing an existing transmission. Changing from an automatic to this manual transmission. Third, Not sure what jumper you are referring to. Replaced relay. Car IS NOT hard to get in reverse. Shifts fine. I have no OD. The light comes on as it should between gears and when I hit the button. I just found out mine being a later design only has a 1st gear switch. If the first gear switch fails can I jump it like in the article above for the second gear switch to get OD to engage. I don’t know what has failed. Pressure switch, solenoid, 1st gear switch? Mine works great in 3rd only. Can’t figure it out. It’s a newer one with only 2 switches on the side of my trans. Steve Does this effect gas consumption. Does it effect the top speed.And how much does it hold and how do u check level I have the unit out and want to install it in a 57 chevy. What do I need to do? Chevrolet has discontinued it These parts are NLA. Break it, you’re in deep, expensive, ca-ca.
This pump is driven by the rear wheels. Until a certain road speed is reached, there will not be enough pressure to safely engage the overdrive clutch without allowing it to slip. There is a pressure switch inside the unit that doesn’t allow the OD to engage until a minimum adequate pressure is reached. If the overdrive circuit is energized in first gear, and the car is accelerated from a stop, at some point, while still in first, the switch will close and the OD will engage. Probably violently. Many owners like to use the clutch when shifting into OD to lessen the forces on the components. You can’t do this when it engages on its own, because you can’t anticipate it. The faster the car is going, the higher the output of the pump, and the higher the pressure. This is INVERSE to the amount of torque the clutch has to absorb and transmit. In first gear the transmission is multiplying say 300 ft lbs of engine output by 2.88 is 865 ft lbs going through the overdrive clutch to the wheels.1,91 2nd is 573 ft lbs, 1,33 3rd is 399 ft lbs, and 1:1 4th is 300 ft lbs. Note the very large step between the torque in first and second. The original design wasn’t intended to absorb the higher torque applied in first gear. And the pressure to make the clutch hold is the lowest in first gear. Exactly inverse of what needs to happen. I wonder how many OD clutches have been burned up by this mod, and the owner never even considered that this mod may have been a contributing factor. Are the potential problems you caution about only related to jumping the 1st gear switch.And the jumper wire goes on the harness back to the ECM? The console mounted rocker switch works as designed so I have full control of overdrive engagement or downshift once out of 1st gear and after min engine temp is met (145F). The only point would be to “lock” the overdrive in for top end. Otherwise my car dowshifts out of overdrive shortly after breaking into the triple digits, a speed limiter.
Would bypassing the switch keep the overdrive engaged in 4th regardless of rpm or throttle position? Since the picture 7-4 has no 3rd gear plug you can’t make it a 6 speed tranny can you? I don’t follow this, because with the harness removed from the switch the switch doesn’t attach to anything, other than being screwed into the transmission case. Could it be that just unplugging the harness did the trick. Just confused as I can understand what good a jumper wire across a switch not electrically hooked to anything will do??? Thanks for the help.? Electricsl plug connected to second gear. Or on 4 th gear? In order to post comments, please make sure JavaScript and Cookies are enabled, and reload the page.

Nash was a successful drag racer turned transmission expert. According to the article it was in essence a Super T10 four speed with a two speed overdrive attached to the back of the transmission that could be engaged in 2nd, 3rd or 4th gear. I have never driven one of these cars so I wondered what are they like to drive with that transmission. I take it they did if for fuel economy but maybe not. What was the shifter arrangement. Was the overdrive electrically engaged. Hopefully someone can let me know. RIP Doug Nash I leave it in OD 90. Much maligned tranny, drive it smoothly, service regularly, it will last.The Super T10 was a pretty stout unit in its heyday as I recall so is it the OD that is the weak link?
The little auto unit did have its problems, as range said service it lots about every 10,000 fluid change. If you are into hard core racing it will let you down. My 85 there is a od switch on the console. Trying to find someone who knows anything about them and who has worked o them is very hard.Parts still avail. Seems the memory or his explanation of how the OD works was a little off. Love the thread. Learned a lot too. Here's the thread from when Kent had it up for sale in '13. I almost bought that baby.

It uses a driver-operated clutch, usually engaged and disengaged by a foot pedal or hand lever, for regulating torque transfer from the engine to the transmission; and a gear selector that can be operated by hands.Higher-end vehicles, such as sports cars and luxury cars are often usually equipped with a 6-speed transmission for the base model. Automatic transmissions are commonly used instead of manual transmissions; common types of automatic transmissions are the hydraulic automatic transmission, automated manual transmission, dual-clutch transmission and the continuously variable transmission (CVT). The number of forward gear ratios is often expressed for automatic transmissions as well (e.g., 9-speed automatic).
Most manual transmissions for cars allow the driver to select any gear ratio at any time, for example shifting from 2nd to 4th gear, or 5th to 3rd gear. However, sequential manual transmissions, which are commonly used in motorcycles and racing cars, only allow the driver to select the next-higher or next-lower gear.A clutch sits between the flywheel and the transmission input shaft, controlling whether the transmission is connected to the engine ( clutch engaged - the clutch pedal is not being pressed) or not connected to the engine ( clutch disengaged - the clutch pedal is being pressed down). When the engine is running and the clutch is engaged (i.e., clutch pedal up), the flywheel spins the clutch plate and hence the transmission.This is a fundamental difference compared with a typical hydraulic automatic transmission, which uses an epicyclic (planetary) design. Some automatic transmissions are based on the mechanical build and internal design of a manual transmission, but have added components (such as servo-controlled actuators and sensors) which automatically control the gear shifts and clutch; this design is typically called an automated manual transmission (or a clutchless manual transmission ).Operating such transmissions often uses the same pattern of shifter movement with a single or multiple switches to engage the next sequence of gears.The driver was therefore required to use careful timing and throttle manipulation when shifting, so the gears would be spinning at roughly the same speed when engaged; otherwise, the teeth would refuse to mesh.Five-speed transmissions became widespread during the 1980s, as did the use of synchromesh on all forward gears.This allows for a narrower transmission since the length of each countershaft is halved compared with one that contains four gears and two shifters.
For example, a five-speed transmission might have the first-to-second selectors on the countershaft, but the third-to-fourth selector and the fifth selector on the main shaft. This means that when the vehicle is stopped and idling in neutral with the clutch engaged and the input shaft spinning, the third-, fourth-, and fifth-gear pairs do not rotate.For reverse gear, an idler gear is used to reverse the direction in which the output shaft rotates. In many transmissions, the input and output shafts can be directly locked together (bypassing the countershaft) to create a 1:1 gear ratio which is referred to as direct drive.The assembly consisting of both the input and output shafts is referred to as the main shaft (although sometimes this term refers to just the input shaft or output shaft). Independent rotation of the input and output shafts is made possibly by one shaft being located inside the hollow bore of the other shaft, with a bearing located between the two shafts.The input shaft runs the whole length of the gearbox, and there is no separate input pinion.When the dog clutches for all gears are disengaged (i.e. when the transmission is in neutral), all of the gears are able to spin freely around the output shaft. When the driver selects a gear, the dog clutch for that gear is engaged (via the gear selector rods), locking the transmission's output shaft to a particular gear set.It has teeth to fit into the splines on the shaft, forcing that shaft to rotate at the same speed as the gear hub. However, the clutch can move back and forth on the shaft, to either engage or disengage the splines. This movement is controlled by a selector fork that is linked to the gear lever. The fork does not rotate, so it is attached to a collar bearing on the selector. The selector is typically symmetric: it slides between two gears and has a synchromesh and teeth on each side in order to lock either gear to the shaft.
Unlike some other types of clutches (such as the foot-operated clutch of a manual-transmission car), a dog clutch provides non-slip coupling and is not suited to intentional slipping.These devices automatically match the speed of the input shaft with that of the gear being selected, thus removing the need for the driver to use techniques such as double clutching.Therefore, to speed up or slow down the input shaft as required, cone-shaped brass synchronizer rings are attached to each gear. In a modern gearbox, the action of all of these components is so smooth and fast it is hardly noticed. Many transmissions do not include synchromesh on the reverse gear (see Reverse gear section below).This is achieved through 'blocker rings' (also called 'baulk rings'). The synchro ring rotates slightly because of the frictional torque from the cone clutch. In this position, the dog clutch is prevented from engaging. Once the speeds are synchronized, friction on the blocker ring is relieved and the blocker ring twists slightly, bringing into alignment certain grooves or notches that allow the dog clutch to fall into the engagement.The latter involves the stamping the piece out of a sheet metal strip and then machining to obtain the exact shape required.These rings and sleeves have to overcome the momentum of the entire input shaft and clutch disk during each gearshift (and also the momentum and power of the engine, if the driver attempts a gearshift without fully disengaging the clutch). Larger differences in speed between the input shaft and the gear require higher friction forces from the synchromesh components, potentially increasing their wear rate.This means that moving the gearshift lever into reverse results in gears moving to mesh together. Another unique aspect of the reverse gear is that it consists of two gears— an idler gear on the countershaft and another gear on the output shaft— and both of these are directly fixed to the shaft (i.e.
they are always rotating at the same speed as the shaft). These gears are usually spur gears with straight-cut teeth which— unlike the helical teeth used for forward gear— results in a whining sound as the vehicle moves in reverse.To avoid grinding as the gears begin to the mesh, they need to be stationary. Since the input shaft is often still spinning due to momentum (even after the car has stopped), a mechanism is needed to stop the input shaft, such as using the synchronizer rings for 5th gear.This can take the form of a collar underneath the gear knob which needs to be lifted or requiring extra force to push the gearshift lever into the plane of reverse gear.Without a clutch, the engine would stall any time the vehicle stopped and changing gears would be difficult (deselecting a gear while the transmission requires the driver to adjust the throttle so that the transmission is not under load, and selecting a gear requires the engine RPM to be at the exact speed that matches the road speed for the gear being selected).In most automobiles, the gear stick is often located on the floor between the driver and front passenger, however, some cars have a gear stick that is mounted to the steering column or center console.Gear selection is usually via the left foot pedal with a layout of 1 - N - 2 - 3 - 4 - 5 - 6. This was actuated either manually while in high gear by throwing a switch or pressing a button on the gearshift knob or on the steering column, or automatically by momentarily lifting the foot from the accelerator with the vehicle traveling above a certain road speed.When the crankshaft spins as a result of the energy generated by the rolling of the vehicle, the motor is cranked over. This simulates what the starter is intended for and operates in a similar way to crank handles on very old cars from the early 20th century, with the cranking motion being replaced by the pushing of the car.
This was often due to the manual transmission having more gear ratios, and the lock-up speed of the torque converters in automatic transmissions of the time.The operation of the gearstick— another function that is not required on automatic transmission cars— means that the drive must use take one hand off the steering wheel while changing gears. Another challenge is that smooth driving requires co-ordinated timing of the clutch, accelerator, and gearshift inputs. Lastly, a car with an automatic transmission obviously does not require the driver to make any decisions about which gear to use at any given time.This means that the driver's right foot is not needed to operate the brake pedal, freeing it up to be used on the throttle pedal instead. Once the required engine RPM is obtained, the driver can release the clutch, also releasing the parking brake as the clutch engages.Please help improve it by rewriting it in an encyclopedic style. ( June 2020 ) ( Learn how and when to remove this template message ) Multi-control transmissions are built in much higher power ratings but rarely use synchromesh.Usual types are:The first through fourth gears are accessed when low range is selected. To access the fifth through eighth gears, the range selector is moved to high range, and the gear lever again shifted through the first through fourth gear positions. In high range, the first gear position becomes fifth, the second gear position becomes sixth, and so on. This allows even more gear ratios. Both a range selector and a splitter selector are provided. In older trucks using floor-mounted levers, a bigger problem is common gear shifts require the drivers to move their hands between shift levers in a single shift, and without synchromesh, shifts must be carefully timed or the transmission will not engage. Also, each can be split using the thumb-actuated under-overdrive lever on the left side of the knob while in high range.
L cannot be split using the thumb lever in either the 13- or 18-speed. The 9-speed transmission is basically a 13-speed without the under-overdrive thumb lever.Transmissions may be in separate cases with a shaft in between; in separate cases bolted together; or all in one case, using the same lubricating oil. With a third transmission, gears are multiplied yet again, giving greater range or closer spacing. Some trucks thus have dozens of gear positions, although most are duplicates. Two-speed differentials are always splitters. In newer transmissions, there may be two countershafts, so each main shaft gear can be driven from one or the other countershaft; this allows construction with short and robust countershafts, while still allowing many gear combinations inside a single gear case.One argument is synchromesh adds weight that could be payload, is one more thing to fail, and drivers spend thousands of hours driving so can take the time to learn to drive efficiently with a non-synchromesh transmission. Since the clutch is not used, it is easy to mismatch speeds of gears, and the driver can quickly cause major (and expensive) damage to the gears and the transmission.Since few heavy-duty transmissions have synchromesh, automatic transmissions are commonly used instead, despite their increased weight, cost, and loss of efficiency.Diesel truck engines from the 1970s and earlier tend to have a narrow power band, so they need many close-spaced gears. Starting with the 1968 Maxidyne, diesel truck engines have increasingly used turbochargers and electronic controls that widen the power band, allowing fewer and fewer gear ratios. A transmission with fewer ratios is lighter and may be more efficient because there are fewer transmissions in series. Fewer shifts also make the truck more drivable.Please help improve this article by adding citations to reliable sources. Unsourced material may be challenged and removed.

These compounds are used to reduce the high sliding friction by the helical gear cut of the teeth (this cut eliminates the characteristic whine of straight cut spur gears ).Retrieved 10 March 2020.
