Was waiting for super bushing shift kit from Pelican and wanted to adjust my valves.
How do you get it into 5th? It seems to only click three times and in ? neutral the whole thing wants to slide out of the transmission (scary) The question here is manually sifting with your hand right at the transmission how to get into 5th. (btw- the Ujoint and all bushings were shot..) Q2 I assume the (E -I- I- E) exaust valves are on the outside i.e. if this was the drivers side .008 exhaust .006 intake .006 intake .008 exhaust cyllinder 1 and 2 ----- 2.0 L 1973 |

You can figer out the rest,,, (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) -Robert |

So thie pivot piece between the two bolts slides out and then toward the front is 5th?
When it started moving I thought it might fall out then not be alligned with the gears inside. I guess it just comes out about an inch and then another set of gears kicks in.....? |

The pivot does not fall out. If it does, you have bigger problems (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
Yes, out all the way and push ball forward. |

So when the "ball lever" is up it is -- 3 positions
Back? Middle? Forward? When the lever is down -- forward is 5th Middle? Back? Where is neutral? |

Here's what works for me. Picture the shifter, rods and console linkage in your mind. That makes it easy to figure out what the motions at the shifter translate to at the shift console on the transaxle. Reverse is forward and left at the shifter. This moves the rod rearward and twisted all the way over counter clockwise (from the rear of the car). Which means the shift console is to the rear and all the way up. 5th is the opposite, with the shift console rod all the way forward and down. Neutral is when the transaxle shift console lever is centered front/rear and moves up and down freely past all of the gears.

Neutral is when the ball is centered and when the shaft moves in and out.
In and forward = 1 In and center = neutral In and back = Reverse Middle and forward = 3 Middle and center = neutral Middle and back = 2 Out and forward = 5 Out and middle = neutral Out and back = 4 |

Correct (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) Neutral is when the ball is centered and when the shaft moves in and out. In and forward = 1 In and center = neutral In and back = Reverse Middle and forward = 3 Middle and center = neutral Middle and back = 2 Out and forward = 5 Out and middle = neutral Out and back = 4 |
