I'm currently having some transmission issues and I wanted to start getting some background information on this particular model. My current thinking is that I might have some problems with the linkage or the vacuum, but I haven't yet had the time to determine what/where the problem is. Nevertheless, I already have some questions and I thought it would be good to start a thread about this transmission. My current questions (with more to come as I investigate) are:

1.Are there any know problems with this transmission (722.435)?

2. Are the B2 piston and K1 spring problems, which have been discussed on earlier models, also a problem with this transmission?

3. Does anyone have any vacuum diagrams for this model?

Thanks!
