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)
