Hello i have 2 cat 3208ta with twin disc MG507-1.
they are from 1990 like new out the box and have just 3000h running
they have been not uses for a couple of years, it seems the oil has been renieuwd.
the port works fine the starboard has some issieus
first he switch in with a delay of 2 sec, oil pressure seems ok on the meter
now forward work direct but reverse dus not get on
i had a cat man looking and hey sead it could be dirt or some damage on the selector valve
I found the service manual and got fig 15-2 with a part diagram from the gear selector (see below)
is see on the diagram under the shift leaver a spring nr.3 and washer nr.5
these are missing. could that be the troubel ?
if i remove the cover plate nr.8 can i pull out the valve shaft for inspection and can i put it back in without special tools ?
Best regards,
Patrick
