I am still trying to figure out why Eric needs 4th and 5th... one can only go so fast on the sidewalks as it is.

Give the pedestrians a chance to get out of the way. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/poke.gif)

on a real note... glad you got it figured out.

IT IS ALIVE!!!

I drove over to Thomas' shop this afternoon with my tranny. He removed the back, pulled the stacks and quickly surmused the 4th and 5th gear fork was loose. A few minutes later, the fork was adusted and tightened, the stack replaced in the case, and the back bolted down.


You can't see it real clearly form this picture, but the 4th 5th gear fork is out of position. Thomas noticed the bolt was fairly loose on this fork.






Note the alignment jig. Yep, he made it himself from an old tranny case. In the background is his 1.7 10-year project.

He also has a 3.2 914 that sports a 911-01 transmission. As he explained it to me, it has basically the same internals as a 901, with a larger flywheel are clutch area and from what I can tell, a different clutch release process than the 901 tranny.

Anyway, after rabout 20 minutes, my transmission was all back together and all six gears were selectable from the shift ball.

I'll put it back in my teener tomorrow and post my results.

That jig looks cool! Thomas you da man!

I now have all the gears! THOMAS adjusted the 4th and 5th fork on Friday afternoon. I put everything together and took a test drive this afternoon. All gears are great!

Now I'm having an electrical problem, but I'll open a new thread for that.

My thanks to Dr. Evil (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) , THOMAS (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) all those at the transmission clinic that helped me (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif) , and all of you whom offered assistance in this thread (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif)

Blue SKies and Gren Lights!
