I recently replaced the firewall bushing and rear shift coupling bushing. Since performing the work, it has been increasingly difficult to shift/find reverse. In addition, first has been a little difficult to locate. I am looking for guidance before I jack the car up and climb under. BTW, its a 74 2.0. Any help is appreciated.

Usually, 1st and Rev. problem is clutch adjustment...
Since you tightend the bushings up, try a clutch adjustment now and see if that helps...If you did not mess with the shifter, the current setting may be OK...Otherwise do the clutch adj. and the shifter adj. as suggested above... 2-OH! |
