Staghound Hydramatic Transmission Question

[Malcolm Towrie]

Thanks for the manual source, Adrian.

And thanks for the story behind the pressure switches, Marco. Very interesting. I'll make sure the switches are hooked up to warning lights for the driver.

I'm also going to install two of those cheap eBay tachometers that sense the HT signal from a plug wire on each engine, as it seems ridiculous to me the driver had no way of monitoring the throttle synchronization of the individual engines, or the synchronization of the shifts between the two Hydramatics. It was seeing the huge shifting rpm discrepancies on the installed tachs on the Chaffee that tipped us off that at least one of the trannies was bad.
