is it more a problem of not being good to downshift into 1st from 2nd or is it more of a dead stop start in 1st - could destroy tranny and why ??
thanks jim |

3rd gear - got it
*note to self - add brake fuild and bleed brakes before 3rd gear joyride : ) so v8 has enough torque to pull easily from a dead stop in 2nd gear thus making 1st gear essentially useless. type4 could not get going decently from a dead stop without 1st gear due to lack of power/torque. jim |
