I recently picked up a 800 right hand drive w/ auto transmission. It appears to have been liquid cooled. I notice the cooling lines had been removed from the water pump and the water pump has a bypass hose on it.
Engine runs well, but I'm fixing the brakes so I can determine the performance of the transmission as I haven't been able to drive it yet.
Is anyone here familiar with these transmissions? I have done enough research to know I will have challenges should I find something seriously wrong with it.
I think it's a bw11, but not sure how to confirm? Should I try to reconnect new cooling lines before I test drive? I'm concerned about too much heat while testing without cooling connected. I have attached pictures for reference. I appreciate any guidance!
My references on the pictures are as if you were sitting in the driver seat (lh=left hand. Rh=right hand)
