Shifter bushing kit



Back to the drawing board!

In a fit I just moved the shift finger in pretty close to the guide
plate (underneath). Now I have a 3-D transmission! All the way down and
forward for Reverse, halfway down and forward for First, and just
forward for Third. Sheeesh

So necxt time I get a chance I am going to move the shift finger just a
little bit away from the guide plate and retest.

At least I did find a bad vacumn hose. Now she does run a little better,
I just can't shift gears.
