looking for indent plunger details for 365
« on: Friday,April 16, 2021, 05:28:22 AM »
Hi All,

I have a TCS with a 365 gearbox. There is no plunger and spring #23 and 24 in the picture below. I do not know if this is usual. The TC part catalogue shows these parts as A074F6129Z and 6130Z.
I am looking for a drawing, pictures or any information that could help me to make them. I suppose that these parts help to pull the gear stick in front of 2nd/3rd selection.
I welcome any advice on these.
Note that the plug screw is accessible and can be accessed easily in the car.
Many thanks,

from what I remember 23 & 24 are not used on the TC. 5th gear and reverse is dependant on the external detent

  :I-agree: 100% - the 2 components you list are removed from the 365 and replaced with the external cam plate and spring loaded plunger on the rear gear selector shaft. There is well documented info on this in a previous thread which I started some months back - (as I was in the same dilemma as you) - I will look for it and when found point you in the right direction.
