Couplers I was installing 802 couplers on some new cars and decided to try the suggested method on the instructions of reducing slack action. First I think I need to grow at least one more hand with finer fingers and motor control. But the real question is how long to make the rod insert? The instructions suggest 0.156" (5/32"). That seems to be too long for the 802s. I also tried something shorter than 0.125". That seemed too short and allowed too much slack to remain in shank travel. So now I'm at about 0.125" which seems about right - perhaps cutting out to much slack. What has the experience of others been? Ben Trousdale
