Haven't spent much time with my 73 2.0L. But I needed to take a look at the 4-5 shift. Shifting down from 5-4 it wants to go into 2nd. Not good ...............
I did the Chris bungee and twist the shift rod clockwise procedure. No help .......... Shifter in and out 3 or 4 times and I finally figured it out. It took a mirror and a mini flashlight. I should preface. Oilite bushing at the transmission. Tangerine bushing at the firewall. Refurbished shifter. Clutch tube reattached ahead of the shifter. What I found was that the bottom half of the primary tunnel tube support let go. Which allows the clutch tube to to rise up and drag on the shift rod. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/sad.gif) This is a shot of my rustoration project I guess the floor pan will be up for some surgery ............. With Mark's car opened up I'll be able figure how I can open it up and do the needed work with the smallest hole. |
