Subject:      shift lever adjustment
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=ISO-8859-1

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
