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 |

You say it grinds like when you are going into reverse? It should NEVER grind going into reverse. That is a sign that your clutch is not disengaging all the way. Tighten your cable and see if your grinding in R and 2nd disappear. Also, your synchro band on 2nd is likely worn, but if a simple tightening of the cable clears this up then dont worry about it.
It is true that oil may take some time to get around, and things to warm up and work well, but the "grind into reverse" symptom is classic for something needing adjustment. |

True...I missed the part about "grinding like going into reverse" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/dry.gif) I was thinking about the "graunch" you get if trying to speed shift a cold transmission! |
