I was given a th350 that was predicted to have messed up the intermediate sprag and the original owner didnt want to mess with it.
Well after a little "research" it turns out that the governor simply ....messed up. what happened was, the little plastic gear on the end flattened and was melted by the output shaft.
This doesnt seem like a common replacement part although I've seen some on ebay. I was gonna call TCI and ask what they recommend but hey..cant hurt to get a 2nd opinion (or 3rd and 4th).
what causes the governor to fail like this? and why is the gear plastic and not metal? The best place to get a replacement?
my biggest question is...why do people continue to use 3 speed transmissions...three gears?!?! why??
