Service Information

SUBJECT: CORRECTING LIMITED THROTTLE ISSUE: 06/86-854 PEDAL TRAVEL, RUNNING CHANGE

APPLICATION: B-W TYPE 37 AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, 008 & 009



A special spring metal clip has been introduced into the valve body in production to prevent a possible problem with limited throttle pedal travel. This change is valid from the following gearbox numbers:

008-22433 009-13177

The new clip (P/N 75-47-946) may also be fitted to earlier Type 37 (008, 009 only) gearboxes to correct complaints of heavy throttle pedal or limited throttle travel.

CLIP P/N 75-47-946

The valve body must be removed and cleaned before installing the new clip. In some cases you will find a similar but not identical spring steel clip. This must be removed before the new clip (see drawing) is installed.

See your Service Manual Sec. 4:2 (p. 472-114) for removing and replacing the valve body and (p. 472-109) for dismantling the valve body.
