Wish I thought to check where the numbers where lined up prior to removal, but here is a good example of why you need to line the numbers up on your speedo gears. The red and blue are from the speedo gear and the gear it meshes with on the output shaft. The red speedo gear "clearanced" itself which is why you see the red flakes.
I'm assuming this happened when the PO had the SYE installed, all I wanted to do was fix the leaking case, now I'm damn near rebuilding the TC.
The FSM says the numbers on the adapter should be at the 6 O'Clock position,
@Chris , you mention 5 O'clock, typo or did you find that the 5 position was better?
