After replacing bushings at my 914/4 -72 tailshift and re-adjusting the linkage I have a almost perfect shift in any gears and at any speed.
The only problem (right now) is that when starting cold in the morning (say 50-55F) there is a grind when shifting into 2nd. This is during the first minutes only, after that shifting into 2nd is like a dream again. The grind is wery noisy, almost as I try to get in reverse. I run Swepco 201. Any ideas? /Lars S |

Per Dr. Evil, "Use 80w90 GL5 rated oil only"
Transmission Fluid discussion Looks like some people use Swepco with no issues. Most 901's will balk on the 1st to 2nd shift when cold. All of my 914's have very nice transmissions (one of them is a Dr. Evil rebuild) and none of them like cold weather. |
