About this transmission

Transmission general data

The BW-35 is an A/T manufactured by the BorgWarner in the 1950s particularly for engines with the capacity of less than 200 cu.in. The modification 35 is a 3-speed A/T coupled to the engine by a three-element torque converter.

Technical issues and repair guidelines

Engine power is converted into hydrokinetic energy and this provides smooth application or driving torque. This transmission has 3-forward and 1- reverse transmission ratio. It was constructed for operation with Type-F oil, which is not so popular today as Dexron.

The hydraulically operated control unit includes a valve location and a pump activated by the engine. The automatic gearbox includes a planetary set having 2 center gears, 3 sets of 3-epicyclic gears which can be found in a planet gear holder and follower gear.
