[DML] Re: Auto Trans Computer Test?

["Dave Swingle" <swingle@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Plug it into the car, hook up the test lights, and spin it up with a 
3/8" electric drill. 1-2 is about 1/4 speed, 2-3 is about 2/3 speed 
at least on my non-calibrated drill. Not very scientific but close 
enough for 25-year-old analog electronics. Be sure to tap on it - 
biggest problem I've had is that even though it's fixed there are 
imperceptible cracks and other bad joints on the circuit boards.
