| | Tools easily carried. If no spare spring: grips needed to bend broken spring. |
| | | Filed the edges off, cut the short end shorter, to get at lower cover screws. |
|
| | Leaned over to save oil in box. It should be a bit more but garage too narrow. |
| | | Oil saved in leant-over box. There was a lot of metallic filings in oil again. |
|
| | This is the 'boss' that spring coil is located on. |
| | | This is the repaired broken spring on re-profiled shift plate. It worked fine. |
|
| | Short, repaired spring seated in re-shaped plate corner. |
| |
| | Repaired spring on repaired, filed-down ratchet arm boss. |
| | | Fit new parts when home, or carry spares, or a file to fix big boss on the road. |
|
| | A new spring on my re-shaped plate: it doesn't seat in the corner. |
| | | View of all the spring contact points. |
|
| | A bit more work was done to better accommodate the new, full-size spring. |
| | | Repared broken spring beside a new spring. |
|
| | Repaired spring and new spring. |
| | | I am confident that the repaired spring would have continued to work fine. |
|
| | Shorter, repaired spring. |
| |
| | New spring and new, correct size boss. |
| | | The old boss that I think caused the failure: it's over 16mm diameter. |
|
| | The new boss at correct 15mm diameter and old boss repaired by filing down. |
| | | The three gearbox selector springs. |
|
| | | I rounded the edge of this arm too,to give a better seat, 'just in case'. |
|
