Help. My 901 side shifter (its connected to a 2.7l 6) has suddenly (within a day) gotten very sloppy. It was actually working pretty well as 901 boxes go, but now I've got 4-5 inches of play when its in gear. Any ideas as to what happened?? Thanks (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)

I just had a similar problem with my car. The problem turned out to be the shift rod. Get under the car and try to change gears by moving the shift rod. I found that the very end of the rod, closest to the rear bumber, had broken loose. It was still holding on, but it was sloppy. When I had the rod repaired the shop said that it was a common failure.
Good Luck. |
