This page is to acquaint people with the identification of popular North American transmissions based on pan shape, case outline, and OEM numbering and coding. This page also offers overall dimension, gear ratios, and number of gears available in each transmission, and originating year, make, and model.

TV cable should move in and out easily when the end is gripped between thumb and one finger. On an AMC the cable moves in as throttle is pressed, is fully out at idle. Adjustment procedure is to make sure carb fast-idle is OFF, then adjust clevis to a "loose pin fit" (pin easily slides in/out with no pressure on cable or throttle linkage), then adjust clevis two turns longer. You can go +/1 one turn to tune shifting (longer = harder shifts, shorter = softer), but much longer than three turns and you will find the trnas down-shifting too soon, such as when cruising up a hill at higher speeds.

*Early models with 196 (195.6) use the M-8, most 62s will use the M-35.
