Type 9 5 speed gearbox on a pinto.
I am having a problem selecting 1st gear (have to depress slightly as if going into reverse), cannot select 2nd gear. No problems selecting 3,4,5 and
reverse. I have a remote gear select. Can anyone offer any suggestions as to what maybe wrong. Any help would be appreciated
Is this at any speed? Sounds like the remote may have warn a little or gone off adjustment slightly.
Usual things to check are oil level, clutch adjustment, clutch arm mech and then remote adjustment.
sounds like the remote to me. Mine did this when the stop bolt(to go into reverse) slackened off.
Thanks for the help. I will have a look at that.
Regards,
Tri
