Post subject:  Magic Wand Anti Rattle

Where is the anti rattle spring located on an early magic wand box? I believe rather than being on the shifter itself, that it is held in the side with a bolt and a nylon bush (NLA I think). Is this correct? The damn thing rattles like mad over about 80kph.

Hmmmmmmmm.
Inside the base of the gear change shaft, it appears. The MCC catalogue says both "gearlever thrust button" & ''gearlever spring" NLA. I would try a rubber bush or grommett with a generic (new) spring.
Or drive slower than 80kays :lol:

But available from the link above as I got the spring and other bits earlier this year

Anto - just thought my bits aren't installed yet - I could photo and measure the bits and you could source replacement bits locally if you like. Nothing special about them - bolt has thread shaved off for a bit and the spring should be available - may even have a spare that would fit now I've got a sample of what it should be :wink:

Yeah I got a new spring, it's just the nylon bit I don't have. For the moment I'll just put a new spring in and see if that solves the problem before hunting for a replacement nylon thingy.

At the moment driving slower than 80 kays should be no challenge... damn slipping clutches!

Way back in the 60s when I had an 850, I put a spring and cup into the top knuckle above the box. You will find it's already machined for it... 8)

Nylon thingy?? no nylon thingy in my setup - there is a brass plunger on the end of the spring - spring - bolt with spring washer - thats it
