do i have the good transmission

[andre]

Hi i have a c34 with a m35bc 1997 and in my paper i saw that my transmission for this motor is suppose to be a hbw150 and i have a hbw100. Is it ok or i have the wrong transmission. Thank for your help.

Andre : With the M35BC engine the correct transmission is the Hurth 100 (early C34 MKIIs) or the new ZF10 (newer C34 MKIIs).

Andre,
Are you having an issue with your transmission? Or is it working fine. If it is working fine, check the transmission fluid level (to make sure you have the correct level), then I would not worry about it as long as it is working fine.

I never have problem with  but since a couple of days when i engage the reverse there is a very big vibration and i have difficulty to disengage but only one time on ten and only in reverse

Andre,
Do you have a folding prop?  If you do, sounds like your prop needs serviced along with your transmission.

Excuse me Jim what do you mean by that. My english is not very good. I have a kiwi prop 3 blades

Andre,
I was thinking about a folding prop like

Think that the Kiwi is a fixed prop.  So that's not the problem.  I would start by changing the transmission oil and checking the control cable.  Good write up in the fall 2015 Mainsheet.

The Kiwi is a feathering prop.

Ander : Sounds as though one or more of your feathering blade  -  isn't feathering!! 

This will definitely cause a vibration!!!!

It's recommended to be lubricated annually.
