I was wondering whether all 914's inherently are unable to shift from 1st to second without quickly--a slight hesitation has been my experience.
The bushing had been replaced, the shifter is a J West rennshift,tranny was rebuilt by Dr Evil, and it shifts fine from 2 to 3, and 4 to 5. Three to four takes a little work, but a lot less than 1 to 2 Any experience or suggestions here ? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) |

I am going to bet the rennshift is not adjusted optimally. They are real hard to get right, it took me a while. You should not have hesitation, but Eric is correct that new bands can cause this until worn in. BUT, I rebuilt your trans in 2005. How many mile you have on it since?
