Dear List, Last week Coby suggested the following to make shifting into first easier: "If so the adjustment that corrects this problem is to loosen the nut & bolt on the locking clamp on the rear section of the selector shaft and turn the rear section of the shaft counterclockwise just a bit. " My dumb question is: Where is "the rear section of the selector shaft?" Are we talking about the collar that holds the spring under the rubber boot on the shift lever in the cabin of the van and is held by a set screw? Or are we talking about a part on the transmission, which I probably do not want to approach. Or is the rear-most section of the linkage that goes from the shift lever in front to the clutch in back. As I think and re-read, I am guessing the last, but ... TIA, Woody |
