a little advice needed ...please..
have the 5 speed box in now and can select all gears apart from 5th ...
with ref to the post above i am going to inspect and trim as required the nylon block to allow the stick to move to the 5th gear location but ...
i have a little difficulty at the mo selecting 1`st gear ? if select second it will then kinda clonk up into 1`st ....would i be right in thinking a little tweek on the connection on gearbox to shift linkage may be required ?? shall check gearbox oil level later just incase that is a little low too ...?
as said above it will select reverse 1,2,3,4, hence my hesitation at the mo on adjusting the linkage ??
any advice to save me a bit of messing would be much appreciated
thanks al
