ZF 4HP22 step by step.

Hi Peter,
Wasn’t sure if the thread was still being read by anyone. As I do have a massive task in front of me, it is good to hear your positive remarks. I'm not sure if it will work out but worthwhile if I do succeed.
It would be great if I could talk to the owner of the converted Stag, there some issues that are different to Rover installation. For instance, I picked up an XJ40 ‘box last night, and first thing noticed the different spigot on the Torque converter. Not sure how I’ll deal with that.
 
I do have a torque converter which has a overall diameter of 300mm, Can anyone tell me whether this a small or medium size?
According to Ashcroft Transmission bigger is better, I think this one is smaller in diameter than the flex plate, so should be OK.

Hi all, anyone spoken to Andy (@eightofthem) lately. I tried emailing a few weeks ago and I PM'd him here over the weekend? Desperately need a need control cable or a suggestion for keeping the ferule on the end in the mechanism. The one I have the pin moves sideways and comes out and I really can't afford to pay some one to put it back each time!20230522_071750.jpg
 
One the plus side I can vouch for Andy's skills. 12000mile and 6-7 years in the fluid is as as new, no smells, no particles, no leaks.
 
Hi Peter.
Sorry I have missed your callings, my old email has been closed by Sky and I can no longer access it.
I will ping you a PM with my new mail address.
The cable should not come out of the cam, the only way it will do that is if the cable is slack enough to be pushed backwards when the throttle returns to the rest position, it will then roll off the cam and work out of the slot it sits in.
Is the crimp set on the inner cable near the clevis fork?

I didn't install it. So basically, it is too slack? Could the crimp move or the cable stretch perhaps?

Yes I would say it's too slack or it is becoming too slack when returning to rest.
The crimp can move up the cable if it's returning hard back into the inner sleeve.
 
I've got the parts to connect the torque converter to the crankshaft (as per the photos on page 2) but can't find torque wrench settings for the 3 sets of fasteners - has anyone got them or can tell me where I can find them? It's a 4.6 engine and the largest of the 3 torque converters just in case that makes a difference.
