Re: shift problem solved


Thanks Russ and Jim for your advice on my gearchange problem. The shift
coupler was the problem. My trans has always had a leak from the small
trans case plugs just above the coupler. Over the years the leaking gear
oil caused the rubber part of the coupler to disintegrate, leading to a
bad case of gearshift roulette. This leads me to another question: does
anyone know a good method of sealing or replacing these plugs without
removing the trans? I'd hate to have to pull the trans to just to fix a
leak but there's not much room to work up in there.
