The weather and streets finally cleared up enough here today to venture out for a short break-in drive up and down some nearby boulevards. Started out and ran up through first and second into third - and thought wow, third is really pretty tall, cruises pretty nice in it. Then I shifted into what I thought was fourth and seemed to hit second - the revs shot up. That was odd - played around with the shifter and seemed to have two gates to the rear OK - what's going on? Then it dawned on me - fourth and third are reversed in the pattern.  Dang it - this would never happen to me with a Muncie. I guess I have the 3rd/4th transmision lever bolted on in the wrong direction. I finished up and drove home shifting from 1rst to 2nd to 4th and finally to 3rd.  Hopefully I can fix this from underneath without having to pull the transmission tunnel again. Otherwise no major issues. |
